Hi @ebidel it seems to work:) like this

       // store in localstorage the token
      await page.evaluateOnNewDocument (
        token => {
          localStorage.clear();
          localStorage.setItem('token', token);
        }, 'eyJh...9_8cw');
      // open the url
      await page.goto('http://localhost:3000/Admin', { waitUntil: 'load' });

Does evaluateOnNewDocument work for this use case? The code you pass it will get injected into the page before other scripts run.
