Motivation
At Netlify, we're gearing up to launch the Netlify Graph, which allows easy access to third-party APIs via the Onegraph acquisition.
What does this PR do?
This PR adds a custom
getLoadContext
function to the Netlify server template which gets at most 2 pieces of information from the function invocation:netlifyGraphToken
, which is passed to handlers that fetch remote third-party data (check our docs here).clientNetlifyGraphAccessToken
, which is extracted from theAuthorization
request header, if present. This might be in JWT form, containing signed information about the client. This short video goes into great detail about the workflows this can allow.
