Fix/Understand Authorization Problems #945

Open

Description

When locally running hackerAPI + dashboard, almost every action you make returns GET http://localhost:3000/api/... 401 (Unauthorized)

Image

The error is being thrown due to async function ensureAuthorized(req, findByIdFns) returning a false value at the end of the function:

async function ensureAuthorized(req, findByIdFns) {
 ...
 if (currentlyValid) {
 return currentlyValid;
 }
 }
 return false; <---- this is where the function returns
}

UPDATE: It is very possible the issue originates from the way the user was created. I manually changed the verification status in the database since the emails weren't sending. This manual change could mess with permissions/roles/authorization

I believe the emails aren't sending due to a sendgrid problem:
