I feel like the most important bit of this tutorial would be the ā€œGenerating a valid JWTā€ section, ideally showing how to have Hasura add the metadata to the token, however itā€™s glossed over. Any chance of getting more detail?

Howdy! Thanks for your feedback. We did some research and took a look at the tutorial:

The steps say to browse to https://auth0-hasura-demo.now.sh/, and log in. Once you do that, the token will be visible and can be copied.

Then, browse to https://jwt.io and paste in the token to see the token claims.

There are screenshots for all these steps to guide you.

Let us know please if this helps or if you need further assistance.

Thank you again for reading the blog post!

Following:

Getting error after mutation:
ā€œmessageā€: ā€œfield "name" not found in type: ā€˜tag_insert_inputā€™ā€

Maybe DB needs repair after lots of people playing with it?
