useAsyncToken

Platforms:✓ Web✓ React Native✓ Expo

If you want to send authenticated request, you can get the required tokens from useAuthState().

  • If a fresh token is optional, you can simply get the current id token from useToken().
  • If you must have a fresh token, request one from useAsyncToken().
import { useAuth } from '@healthblocks-io/core/auth'

function Page() {
  // Read current token data
  const id_token = useToken()
  const submit = () =>
    fetch('/api', { headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer ' + id_token } })

  // Callback that will refresh the token if needed => better
  const token = useAsyncToken()
  const submit = async () =>
    fetch('/api', { headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer ' + (await token()) } })
}
