Fetching a storage document that have permissions restrictions
hello !
i'm trying to play a video stored on a storage bucket, where the bucket has the read permissions only for user with the premium label. I'm authenticated everything is working, i see the labels using account.get().
const url = storage.getFileView("videos", file_id); this call is working, i can get the url with url.href but when fetching it i get a 401 unauthorized.
Looking at the request (see attachment), no cookies or header to authenticate are sent, so it's normal that i get a 401.
everything was working before the cloud upgrade to v1.15, and i'm using createemailpasswordsession to auth.
how can i fetch the video file ?
thanks !
TL;DR
Developers are having trouble fetching a video stored on a storage bucket with permissions restrictions. After a cloud upgrade, they are getting a 401 unauthorized error indicating missing authentication headers in the request. Solution: Manually add the necessary authentication headers or cookies when fetching the video file. 
How do you fetch it? manually?
If so, because you're on localhost you won't get the cookies
