🐛 Bug Report: No way to reset / destroy the `widget_user_auth_token` in the iFrame embed.

[ahmed-classtra]

📜 Description

I have a Vue app that embeds the iFrame option for displaying the notification center. When I log out the existing user and log in as a new user, the notifications don't get updated.

The widget_user_auth_token is not reset and remains the same. Only after a hard refresh on the page does the notification list update.

👟 Reproduction steps

1. Embed the iFrame in your app.
2. Log in & check the notification center (also see widget_user_auth_token).
3. Log out of the current user.
4. log in as a new user.
5. Check the notification center (and widget_user_auth_token).

👍 Expected behavior

Step 5 should result in different notifications (and widget_user_auth_token) from step 2.

👎 Actual Behavior with Screenshots

Both the notifications and widget_user_auth_token for steps 2 and for remaining the same.

@scopsy I think that we had several Vue issues.... correct?

@oba2311 i'm not 100% sure it's relevant for Vue, but with the actual IFrame behaviour until we add an official wrapper for vue.

@ahmed-classtra I think that the solution here is to allow a method to remove the notification center session for it. We can add it to the existing embed and react components.

Thanks. It's definitely not a Vue issue. The iframe isn't clearing the storage. The best way around it for now is wrapping the React component in your own custom iframe. At least for now.
