Is auth context passed to scheduled actions from server side queries/mutations?

I'm calling an action within a server side mutation using:

    await ctx.scheduler.runAfter(
      0,
      api.test.testFn,
      testData,
    );
    await ctx.scheduler.runAfter(
      0,
      api.test.testFn,
      testData,
    );


However when trying to retrieve the userIdentity within the action via:
    const identity = await ctx.auth.getUserIdentity();
    const identity = await ctx.auth.getUserIdentity();


It returns null.

Is the auth context only passed to the action when the action is called directly from the client? Or am I doing something wrong? I'm using Convex Auth btw.

Hi @everyone with everything going on today I forgot to post on discord about our EU launch! We have a region in Dublin now! You can start using it immediately, even for folks on the free plan. https://news.convex.dev/we-finally-got-our-eu-visa/ Stay tuned for more regions but also stay tuned for more infra improvements where we improve latency for teams no matter where their servers are located. Just at the tip of the iceberg re all the optimizations we have lined up.
