1. Custom Claims

Firebase allows attaching custom claims to a user’s token (e.g., for roles). The adapter’s verifyToken method will parse these and make them available in the normalized user object.

import { Auth } from '@quatrain/auth'
 
async function checkAdminStatus(token: string) {
    const auth = Auth.getAdapter('firebase')
    const user = await auth.verifyToken(token)
    
    // User claims are exposed
    if (user.claims && user.claims.admin) {
        console.log('User is an admin')
    } else {
        console.log('Regular user')
    }
}
