SpeakArea.tsx passing UserId

[kmankan]

Investigate whether this a secure approach. i.e. is there a better way of doing this than getting the userId on the client side and passing it into the function

 const handleStartSession = async () => {
        if (!userId) {
            return;
        }
        // create a new conversation
        console.log("Creating new conversation for user: ", userId);

        const conversation = await createNewConversation(userId);

        setConversationId(conversation.id);
        console.log("Conversation created with id: ", conversation.id);
        setShowModal(false);
    };

One potential solution:

• take out the parameter from createNewConversation(userId);
• use getSession on the util function createNewConversation to get the user object on the server side.

Another solution:

Create a userId in zustand store
