Spring Boot Security, adding filters to different routes

I'm trying to put together a single application that contains both an API and an Admin interface using Spring Boot.

The idea is that all API endpoints will be accessible via domain.com/api/ and the admin interface under domain.com/admin/

The Admin interface and the API need different types of authentication, so somehow in the spring security configuration I need to define a filter for routes starting with /api/ and define another route to be called for routes starting /admin/

This is my security config class, which I thought might work, but it doesn't.

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
@Order(SecurityProperties.ACCESS_OVERRIDE_ORDER)
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

    @Autowired
    AuthenticationFilter authenticationFilter;

    @Autowired
    AdminAuthenticationFilter adminAuthenticationFilter;

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        http.csrf().disable()
                .authorizeRequests()

                // Allow anonymous visitors to auth controller methods
                .antMatchers("/admin/auth/**").permitAll()

                .antMatchers("/admin/**").authenticated().addFilterBefore(adminAuthenticationFilter, UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter.class)
                .antMatchers("/api/**").authenticated().addFilterBefore(authenticationFilter, UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter.class)

                // All other request need to be authenticated
                .anyRequest().authenticated();

        http.exceptionHandling().accessDeniedPage("/auth/403");
    }

}
