setRole()

Use nhost.setRole to set the user role for all subsequent GraphQL, storage, and functions calls. Underneath, this method sets the x-hasura-role header on the graphql, storage, and functions clients.

nhost.graphql.setHeaders({ 'x-hasura-role': role })
nhost.storage.setHeaders({ 'x-hasura-role': role })
nhost.functions.setHeaders({ 'x-hasura-role': role })

Note: Exercise caution when mixing the use of setRole along with setHeaders when setting the x-hasura-role header, as the last call will override any previous ones.

nhost.setRole('admin')
