After integrating my express server with passport for user authentication on our portal, there seemed to be an issue when trying to fetch user details from our API using the same session from the client. While I could see identity provider data for the logged-in user, GraphQL calls made from the React side did not have the user session in their request to Apollo servers, despite it being present in the Express session.
I followed the steps outlined in the Apollo Server documentation, but encountered difficulties when setting up the context for ApolloServer as the 'req' object did not contain passport in its session.
