How to call default API endpoint in custom plugin?

So what you are basically saying is that I need to use axios because I am doing the request from the Strapi Admin UI and I will be authenticated because of that. I have set the endpoint /api/groups/ only to authenticated and changed my code to this:

import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import axios from 'axios';
import pluginId from '../../pluginId';

const getGroups = async () => {
  axios.get('http://localhost:1337/api/groups')
    .then(response => {
    console.log(response.data);
  })
    .catch(error => {
    console.error(error);
  });
};
useEffect(() => {
  getGroups();
}, []);

This returns me a 403 Forbidden now. So that won’t work :frowning:
