Trouble using useQuery and convexQuery with queries that use ctx.auth.getUserIdentity()

So, like it says on the tin — I am unable to use the standard

useQuery()

useQuery()

(from

convex/react

convex/react

) or the

@convex-dev/react-query

@convex-dev/react-query

package's

convexQuery()

convexQuery()

functions to call

query()

query()

functions in my Convex API that check

ctx.auth.getUserIdentity()

ctx.auth.getUserIdentity()

as an auth guard mechanism.

In other places in my nextjs project (server actions), I can invoke such query functions by adding a third argument with an auth token, like this:

import { auth } from '@clerk/nextjs/server';
import { fetchQuery } from 'convex/nextjs';

const token = (await auth().getToken({ template: 'convex' })) ?? null

const someResult = await fetchQuery(
  api.messages.getLatest,
  { limit: 30 },
  { token }       // <------ clerk auth token
);

import { auth } from '@clerk/nextjs/server';
import { fetchQuery } from 'convex/nextjs';

const token = (await auth().getToken({ template: 'convex' })) ?? null

const someResult = await fetchQuery(
  api.messages.getLatest,
  { limit: 30 },
  { token }       // <------ clerk auth token
);

Am I using the wrong approach for auth guarding the query funciton? Or is there some different mechanism for passing a token to the

useQuery()

useQuery()

and

convexQuery()

convexQuery()

functions?
