Something is overriding the render function on authentication failure

[setriva]

Hello,
What the title says: on authentication failure, the app renders "Authorization Failed", instead of the json I'm trying to render. Here is my code:

def create
    user = authenticate_session(session_params)
    if sign_in(user)
      render json: user, serializer: AuthenticationSerializer, root: :user
    else
      render json: { errors: 'Wrong email or password' }, status: :unauthorized
    end
  end

There is no problem when the user authenticates correctly, the problem is only when it fails.
Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I think the issue is that Warden automatically captures 401 responses and forces it's own body. You should be able to override this with warden.custom_failure!: https://github.com/hassox/warden/blob/906edf86c6c31be917a921097031b89361d022e8/lib/warden/proxy.rb#L286

Given that this is warden territory, my question here is should Monban do anything about this, and if so, what?

I've decided it will probably just be best to add this to the documentation.
