Hi @abroadhurst!

Do you mind sharing the specific sample(s) you’ve been working with?

It sounds like there is no Authorization header being included in the request and thus no authorization token - Basically, the middleware is checking to see if there is a valid Access Token included in the Authorization header, and in this case the header might be missing altogether.

For example, you can see this in action in our React sample:

    try {
      const token = await getAccessTokenSilently();

      const response = await fetch(`${apiOrigin}/api/external`, {
        headers: {
          Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
        },
      });

This code + sample app can be found here.

Hope this helps!
