Network calls tagged as unauthorised when resuming app

[natebakescakes]

Description

When restoring our app from a paused state, it is intermittently unable to make network calls. We are unsure why the underlying SQLite implementation for the cookie store sometimes throws GDNotAuthorizedErrorBridge.

Setup

• React Native 0.63.1
• Blackberry Dynamics SDK for Android: 7.1
• targetSdkVersion 29
• Android 11

Steps to reproduce

1. Launch App
2. Complete Blackberry registration process
3. Go into Android multitasking view
4. Kill App
5. Launch App again and input blackberry password/authenticate via fingerprint
6. Make network call

Expected

Network calls should be authorized

Actual

All further network calls will throw the same error. It can only be solved by pausing and resuming the app again.

Current workaround

Our API calls currently don't make use of cookies for sessions. As such, we are able to circumvent this issue by forcing the GDHttpClient to use an in-memory implementation.

public class GDHttpRequestDelegate {

    public GDHttpClient getHttpClient() {
        GDHttpClient client = new GDHttpClient();
        client.setCookieStore(new CustomCookieStore());
        return new GDHttpClient();
    }
}
