Authenticating users

Template for validating user with token before sending them information from our database

with a request that has the content

}

we authenticate the user with the auth.verifyIdToken() function

export const GET = async ({ request }) => {
    const token = await request.json();     // convert request into JSON format to retrieve the token
    try{
        await auth.verifyIdToken(token) 
        const info = //information from our database 
        return json(info, {status : 200})   // return the info as a response
    }catch{     // if verify failed then return invalid token
        return json("invalid token", {status: 401})
    }
}
