How can I add a fresh token to each request, when using TusUploady?

[joel-s]

Could anyone please help me with the following challenge?

We need to include an access token in each HTTP request, as a header:

Authorization: "Bearer: {accessToken}"

Our tokens don't last very long, they expire within a minute or two. So we want to make sure to include an up-to-date token each time TusUploady makes a POST or PATCH (etc.) request. That's why we can't just pass the token to <TusUploady> when we create it.

I tried this, but it didn't work:

    useRequestPreSend(({ items }) => {
        const user = getUser();
        const accessToken = user?.access_token ?? "";

        const name = items[0]?.file.name;

        return {
            options: {
                headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}` },
                params: {
                    filename: name,
                },
            },
        };
    });

I think it may be possible to do this with an Enhancer, but I'm not sure how to use one to add a header.

Hey @joel-s
It should be possible and I think the requestPreSend should be the way to go. But this is exactly what I'm investigating now in #907.
I hope I will have answers and a fix soon for you
