Security policies blocking internal users?

We login as a lot of users to help them debug issues or take action on their behalf We noticed some queries tied to Convex don't load when we do this, making it seem like our website is broken. However, on different devices (where we login as multiple users less often), we don't see this issue. Is convex applying security policies to our internal accounts? Any way we can turn these off for us so we don't panic that something in prod has broken?...

External API fetch advise

Hello, I'm using Convex folder for all my data-access layer now. I need to fetch some data from other APIs and they don't interact with Convex. I'm using Next.js. Is there any downside if I use an action in a 'use node' file for fetching data, or is better to use a next.js route instead?

Has anyone else seen this issue? openai api blocking convex?

It seems like this morning any request to the openai api is getting 403 and blocked from cloudflare. Has anyone else seen this? is this maybe an issue downstream on their side?

Optional validator in mutation not working for one attribute but fine for others

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong on this mutation, I consistently get an error on the logoStorageId when I am calling it when the value is null. None of the other optional validators are giving me grief, just this one : ```export const update = mutation({ args: { id: v.id("vendors"), name: v.optional(v.string()), category: v.optional(v.string()),...

convex@latest with vite / convex auth starter kit streamlining

Hey some suggestion for the npm create convex@latest with vite / convex auth starter kit. First of all, looking great, was up with a discord login chat app in a couple minutes and it translates well from next-auth setup. However, I stumbled a bit for the vite SITE_URL and JWT env var setup and had to go back and forth between a couple doc pages. Can we add the generateKeys.mjs script to the starter code in case I picked convex-auth in CLI and maybe even make that script execute the convex env set calls?...

How to redirect to register page from restricted rout if new user

What would be the best way to implement this: I am using Convex AUTH and Nextjs with email otp based authentication using Node mailer. When user submits OTP we verify the OTP and check is the user is existing user or new user using isNewUser query. Based on that I am able to redirect to register page or home page. But there is an edge case I am unable to figure out: if user didn't complete the registration flow and refreshed the page, the user is getting redirected to home page as while submiting the OTP i had already verified the user which gets autheticated. What would be best way to handle this where we restrict the home if user is new user. I tried creating a query function and use it in middleware but it seems that query functions cannot be used in middleware....

Deploying with netlify with vite and react.

Hello I am participating on a hackathon and using convex with vite and react. I am having trouble opening my first page when I deploy my app on netlify. When I inspect element it is showing my index.html which has <script type="module" src="src/main.tsx"></script>, but I dont believe it is being executed as I just say on this blank page. When I do npm run dev, it opens the correct page (<Route path="/" element={<LoginSignupPage />} />) not my index.html
