When I do a setAuth with my service token the user remains null, what am I doing wrong? Also the Docs state there should be an error object but there doesn't seem to be one?

```
const serviceToken = Deno.env.get('SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY')
supabaseClient.auth.setAuth(serviceToken!)
var currentUser = await supabaseClient.auth.api.getUser(serviceToken!)

console.log(currentUser)
```

This returns a null

All in all, I'm trying to invoke `inviteUserByEmail` and prior to that I'm setting the auth to the service role however I get an error saying `[ { data: null, error: { message: "User not allowed", status: 401 } } ]` both on local and when deployed

Ok, clear, that solves my confusion but not my error. I'm still confused as to why inviteUserByEmail doesn't work after I've set the setAuth to the service token

Try initializing the client with service role key maybe versus the user...

I also need the user in a previous block though

Ah you mean initialize with service role and then use the setAuth when I need it in that block?

But then why would it take the user in that block but not the service role in the other

I've not had enough coffee yet to really process auth stuff.  If someone else does not come along, I'll read over this again in awhile.

Thanks Gary, hope the coffee does you good! Looking forward to someone else or a more 
caffeinated you!

<@764524500162445402> It actually is working completely according to plan when I initialize with the service role. Maybe I can only setAuth to the service role when the client is a service role in the first place? Eh. For now I can continue!
