Hi all, I try to integrate Rasa Open Source with an existing website and want to allow users do have queries about their personal data after login. My existing service prepares a JWT token that is valid for Rasa. Currently I use Socket IO though the Chat Widget example for managing the communication and it is well configured for JWT authentication.
At this point I am wondering if I could do retrieve the JWT token inside a custom action, so I could use it for authenticating the user request at my existing service side. Any feedback would be really appreciated.
Thanks, Stephens. Indeed, it would be a good and straightforward approach. However, I found a different solution by forking the Socket channel and writing a custom connector for managing the way of preparing the sender_id. It might not be the best approach due to its performance side effects but it worked. It means that I store the username in the sender_id, so I can access it from the tracker and prepare a new JWT token anytime I need inside my custom actions.
