Authenticating with Clerk for a Front Sidebar plugin

Hey folks, I’m build a front plugin with Auth from Clerk, and running into a bunch of issues. The login screen successfully opens + launches a google oAuth login, but then fails due to clerk issues.

I’m assuming it has something to do with all network requests causing a 401 when sent from the sidebar UI. Running locally/on prod we’re able to login successfully. 

Would love a running example in the docs for Clerk apps.

They’re not using Clerk but should be quite similar. Please let us know should you run into any specific issues!
