FAQPage Schema
How do I protect routes in a TanStack Start application using Clerk?▼

To protect routes in a TanStack Start application using Clerk, implement beforeLoad guards that perform server-side auth calls and issue route redirects for unauthenticated users.

Can I use Clerk auth inside TanStack server functions and loaders?▼

Yes, you can use Clerk auth inside TanStack server functions and loaders by setting up createServerFn handlers that safely access authenticated user context on the server.

What is the best way to secure organization-scoped features with Clerk and TanStack?▼

The best way to secure organization-scoped features with Clerk and TanStack is to apply organization-aware workflows that require authenticated user context within your server functions and loaders.

Do I need Clerk middleware setup for TanStack route guards?▼

Yes, correct Clerk middleware setup is required for TanStack route guards to ensure server-side authentication calls and context propagation function properly across your application.

How does context propagation work with Clerk authentication in TanStack?▼

Context propagation with Clerk authentication in TanStack works by passing the authenticated user context from middleware through server functions and loaders to secure API handlers.

Why are my TanStack route redirects not working with Clerk authentication?▼

TanStack route redirects fail with Clerk authentication when beforeLoad guards are not properly configured to execute server-side auth calls before allowing access to protected routes.
