Passing token in the headers

[ZouTiger]

Great project first of all so thank you for creating it.

I am working with Hasura, which requires JWT token to be included in the headers. How would I do that using next-firebase-auth? Is there a way to access the token on client so I can pass it to Apollo Client?

Hasura also requires custom claims but that I can solve by using Hasura's claims_map.

Hi @ZouTiger , I believe this is the example that you are looking for: https://github.com/gladly-team/next-firebase-auth/blob/main/example/pages/static-auth-required-loader.js

1. Make sure that page is wrapped with withAuthUser HOC
2. Then const AuthUser = useAuthUser() to retrieve the instance of the currently logged in user
3. const token = await AuthUser.getIdToken() to retrieve auth token
4. And then you can call your external API with the headers properly set as done here

@tlays Many thanks! Apparently, I wasn't paying attention enough.
