Can I customize the Strapi url for only the data requests, yet keep the defaults on everything else?

Description

I want to use the API token to request data from Strapi. I want to pass it into the bearer auth header.

I don't want to expose the token on the front end, so I was using Nuxt's API /server/api/*route* to intercept the request and add the token server-side. Yet, when I do this I lose the useStrapi() functions as they will always hit the Strapi API directly.

Can I customize this just for the requests somehow?

Research direction

Start with the Nuxt server/api/route entry point described in the issue and trace how useStrapi() constructs its requests. Check whether request-specific URL and server-side bearer authentication are supported without changing other defaults. Done means the supported behavior or required change is clearly established, including how the token remains off the frontend.
