Hi, I'm trying to use useFormState together with Next.js 14 server actions, inside my action I validate the data that arrives in a formData and then if everything is ok I make the POST to my back.

My problem is that from the action I can't access anything related to the client (quite slow of me to realise this just now hahahaha), either localStorage or sessionStorage to access the token and make the request.

Now this leaves me with the question of whether requests should be made in the action or am I missing the point, as any kind of request with Authorization is complicated unless you have a preset token that never expires(?).
