Optional Auth on API endpoint

tbb

What would be the best way to allow auth + non auth users access the same endpoint and adapt function stack accordingly? (e.g. conditional doing one thing for auth users, other thing for non auth requests to that endpoint)

Instead of default authentication, use the authentication inside the if-else.

I was trying to use Conditional with auth.id condition but auth is not avaiable unless I enable default auth on the endpoint.

If you want to use built-in authentication, the endpoint needs to have Xano pre-process it. If you want shared functionality for auth/nonauth, I would do it with two endpoints that both call a common function.

Exactly as Ray described. Because our authentication tokens are encrypted, there isn't a method to decrypt them at this time. We can definitely look into adding support for this, though. Can you please submit a feature request here? Thank you!
