I'd like to know how to save the token generated when a user logs in, this is the code I'm using for this functionality:

async function handleSubmit(e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) {
    e.preventDefault();

    try {
      await Auth.signIn("AwesomeEmail@gmail.com", "MyAwesomePassword");
      Router.push("/account");
    } catch (error) {
      setErrorMessage(error.message);
    }
  }

So, when the user is redirected to the account route, I fetch the token of this user with the method Auth.currentAuthenticatedUser(); but this one does not exist. This is because the token is not saved... I've been looking for information and I could find this what I want to know is if this example is a good practice to implement it or someone has a better code for this? Thank you!

Two things could be at fault here:

1. There was a race-condition with Auth.currentAuthenticatedUser() where the token wasn't immediately available after logging in, but has since been fixed.

2. feat(SSR): withSSRContext #6146 automatically handles tokens for Next.js sot hey can be passed to the server.

   Please see my synopsis on changes here: Server-Side Rendering (SSR) with Next.js #5435 (comment)
