Description

If the token is expired, I will get an error with HTML message filled: <span data-ansi-line="true"><span>Not authorized</span></span>. I use WebSocketTransport and QueryRenderer in my react app.

The problem is: I need to handle the token-expired(or invalid) situation (maybe to renew a token or logout user). But I can not find any way except to use error.toString().match(/Not\sauthorized/). It's not robust.

Is there any other way?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate Cube.js WebSocketTransport event handling for authentication errors. Check the Cube.js documentation or source code for custom error events or hooks to detect token expiration without parsing error strings.
