Laravel5.4 authenticate users from api source, i.e. without database table for user/admin

Laravel5.4 authenticate users from api source, i.e. without database table for user/admin. I expected JSON response from Api, after success how to use the Auth class so that I can maintain the sessions and authentication just like database. Do I have to make custom auth? If so how will I initiate attempt method as it checks for database. I have made admin guard, Is there any way to accomplish this. Thank you.
