Title: Troubleshooting and Setup of User Authentication for App Development

In this meeting, the State Changers discuss an issue with the sign-up process in a database. They identify that the password field in the user table should be changed from text to password type. After making the necessary changes, they test the sign-up process and confirm that it is working correctly.


They also discuss the authentication token and mention that the JWP authentication tokens typically start with "ey." This token is used to authenticate and store information in a cookie. They run an authenticated endpoint function and choose an auth token to proceed. Towards the end of the meeting, the State Changers address a potential security concern related to the hashed password. They suggest removing the password from the output of the get record from user function to prevent potential attacks. Overall, the meeting focuses on resolving issues with the sign-up process, understanding authentication tokens, and implementing necessary security measures.
