Good afternoon! I am trying to follow the guide here to retrieve a userID: https://supertokens.com/docs/emailpassword/common-customizations/get-user-info however typehinting the req and adding a ! into the statement is causing a syntax error. How else can I grab the user ID?

hey @M/\X

Hey RP - I realised after posting that it was typescript, sorry for the bother. However I keep getting 'unaurthorised' when trying to make an API call to a route with verifysession (despite the user being logged in). Anything obvious i can check?

Can you enable debug logging and show me the output when making that call?

I tried passing

verifySession({sessionRequired: false})

here is the output

You don’t need to call getSession again

Morning @rp_st , first I wanted to thank you for your ongoing support, it's very kind. Second I want to point out that I'm just a student so I understand if you need to spend your time on other more important support cases. I get the response 'unauthorised' when ever I try to access an API on the front end that has verifysession() on it despite the user being logged in. I am not sure how to enable debug logging in react or for supertokens. I googled it but wasn't sure what you were looking for.

You can look for the section “troubleshooting” in our docs

Ah thank you - here is the output (happy to paste the code if that would help)

You need to make a call to localhost:3001 instead of 127.0.0.1:3001

That worked 🤦‍♂️

Hehe. Don’t worry about it.

In a perhaps unrelated problem, nothing inside of will load despite being logged in

Any console error?

I am a fool! I must have been tired because I had wrapped the entire root in the tags not just the element, its working now. Sorry to bother you @rp_st !

Happy to help 🙂
