2026-05-26 - GCIP Email Claims Fix for API Authentication¶
Release¶
AgileData.io - Identity Fixed: Email Claims Now Reliably Passed for GCIP Users
For users authenticated via Google Cloud Identity Platform (GCIP), the email address wasn’t always being included in the authentication claims passed between AgileData’s function layer and the API layer. In some cases, the email was entirely missing from the claims, which caused authentication checks in the API to fail silently or reject requests unexpectedly.
Two coordinated fixes have been applied: the function layer now explicitly includes the email in GCIP claims when calling the API, and the API layer now handles the case where the email may be absent — gracefully falling back rather than throwing an error.
What was happening:
GCIP authentication claims didn’t always include the user’s email address
The API layer would fail when it encountered claims with a missing email field
This could cause unexpected request failures for GCIP-authenticated users
What this means for you:
More reliable authentication for users signing in via GCIP
Fewer unexplained request failures related to identity verification
