Angular $http.get sending two requests

Question

I am trying to send authorization info in a header using Angular $http.get.

If I call $http.get without config, it send the request only once.

As soon as I add a config with header info, it sends the request twice to the server. Once without the authorization header and the second time with.

Here is my code:

var config = {
    headers: {
        Authorization: authorization
    },
    withCredentials: true
};

$http.get(url, config).success(function (response) {
    $scope.records = validateResponse(response);
});

How can I get it to send only one request with the header information?

Try modifying the default http header of angularjs and make the request. $http.defaults.headers.common.Authorization = 'token';
