Expected behavior

When I Create an action

    {
      name: 'Remove Video',
      type: 'single',
      httpMethod: 'DELETE',
      endpoint: '/api/forest/page-contents/playlists/videos',
      download: false,
      fields: [
        {
          field: 'video',
          isRequired: true,
          type: 'Enum',
          enums: [],
        },
      ],
      hooks: {
        load: ({ fields, request }) => {
          return fields;
        },
      },
    }

I expect endpoint POST 'http://localhost:3000/api/forest/page-contents/playlists/videos/hooks/load' to be called and authentication completed and my endpoint to be called that returns a list of fields

  @Post('page-contents/playlists/videos')
  removePlaylistVideos(@Body() request: ForestRequestDto<PlaylistContentDto>): any {
    return {
      fields: [
        {
          field: 'video',
          type: 'Enum',
          enums: ['Video 1', 'Video 2'],
          position: 0,
          defaultValue: null,
          isRequired: false,
          description: null,
          reference: null,
          widget: null,
          value: null,
        },
      ],
    };
  }

Actual behavior

Current behavior is that it calls my endpoint 'http://localhost:3000/api/forest/page-contents/playlists/videos/hooks/load' but authentication fails with message Unauthorized: Forest cannot authenticate the user for this request. For some reason it doesn't have request.user and authentication fails even though all headers are sent as expected.

Smart action that is passing:

And hook that is not passing:
