Hi,   i have a question regarding the tokens.   i have a local server in my network. i enabled the local authentication. my app (dreamplex) is getting a token for the server no problem.   but ...   the user i connect with is a user that should have limited access. e.g. only sections for childs.   when the user connects i see that the normal token is used ...   We found auth token (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx), enabling token-based authentication.
