How to send token?

[gbowne1]

@gbowne1 My idea for this is I think we should add a ensureAuthenticated.middlware.js function

Like

function ensureAuthenticated(req, res, next) {
  if (req.isAuthenticated()) {
    return next();
  } else {
    res.redirect('/login');
  }
}

Then send a 302 Found to the user.

Then we just add to the GET for dashboard app.get('/dashboard', ensureAuthenticated, (req, res) => { // Render the dashboard page or handle the request as needed });

We currently have a middleware to validate if it is authenticated through the api, however we could implement one for web pages, we just need to define the way in which you will send me the token to validate it

I think we only have authorized which is separate from authenticated. A whole different level of security. This particular one does redirect.

[gbowne1]

app.post('/login', (req, res) => {
  // Perform authentication and authorization checks
  // If successful, redirect the user to the desired page
  if (authenticationSuccessful && authorizationSuccessful) {
    res.redirect('/dashboard');
  } else {
    // Handle authentication or authorization failure
    res.redirect('/login');
  }
});
