nchan_subscriber_type isn't accessible by lua access block

[KamranBiglari]

I tried to access nchan_subscriber_type but value is null in access_by_lua_block stage.
How it's possible to get the connection type ?
I want to know it's HTTP or WEBSOCKET

location ~ "^/live/midrate/v1/rates/([A-Z]{3})([A-Z]{3})/(SPT|SN|ON|TN|W[1-3]|M[1-9][0-9]?|Y[2-5])/([D,N])/([O])/?$" {
    # Default settings
    default_type 'application/json;charset=UTF-8';

    # nchan authorization settings

    nchan_message_buffer_length 1;

    nchan_message_timeout 96h;
    nchan_subscriber;
    nchan_channel_id "midrate-v1-$1$2-$3-$4-$5";
    client_max_body_size 0;
    nchan_subscribe_existing_channels_only on;

    access_by_lua_block {
    local res = ngx.location.capture("/auth/verify/authorization/v1/",{
      args = {
        key = "fiat.live.midrate.rates.".. ngx.var[3],
        channels = ngx.var.nchan_subscriber_type,
        instruments = { ngx.var[1], ngx.var[2] }
      }

    })
    if res.status ~= ngx.HTTP_OK then
      ngx.exit(res.status)
    end
    }
