Refactor auth for better readability

**Description**
Currently routes lacks proper export support.

**Proposed solution**
Add configurable export with sensible defaults.

**Priority**: Low/Medium

Start by locating the route and authentication handling in the Shell code, then inspect how exports are currently represented or exposed. Confirm the intended configurable export behavior and its sensible defaults with the issue context; done means routes support the requested export configuration without reducing existing behavior.
