My Chrome extension aims to allow a user to create a bookmark (url, title etc.) of the current tab and send it to a Rails backend to save it to a user's profile. Bookmark#create requires authentication, which I use the simple_token_authentication gem for with Devise.
My question now is how I can check whether a user is logged in and is authorized to create a bookmark?
I know that there a many similar questions (like this one: Chrome Extension + Devise + Rails App - Making authenticated requests from extension?), however the answer is not very detailed.
This it my first Chrome extension, so I'm grateful for any help!
