Description

Currently we do not expect or process any authentication token from the clients using our API. The scope of this task is to update the API to process the authentication token, when provided, and then use it to authorize a subset of operations where appropriate.

Scope includes determining which operations should be constrained with authorization, but that must include at least editing a user profile.
