I’ve been trying for two weeks to get Apollo working with Meteor version 3. I need subscriptions, and I need a way for the server to see Meteor.userId() for authentication purposes.

Does anyone here have some ApolloClient and ApolloServer setup code they could post? It would be greatly appreciated.

**UPDATE:** I found a way to get the token to the server, and then use that to look up the authenticated Meteor.userId()! I’ll get the client and server code cleaned up and posted here. I still have to get subscriptions working. 🙂
