403 response for authenticated call to local dfx host

[digitaldoggo]

I was having some trouble with using @dfinity/auth-client when running with local dfx tool and then stumbled upon this repo. It seems I am having the same issue when running this example auth client implementation.

The following call fails with 403 response in this sample application:

const response = await actor.whoami();

Error:

Error: Server returned an error:
  Code: 403 (Forbidden)
  Body: Failed to authenticate request

I am wondering if there is something I am missing.

Any help is greatly appreciated :)

Disregard. I think I might be asking about this in the wrong place. I believe the answer I was looking for is here:
