Pull request overview

This PR updates the SignalR authentication/authorization documentation to clarify how authorization behaves when a user’s roles/claims change after a SignalR connection is established.

Changes:

  • Adds a new section explaining that SignalR caches the authenticated principal for the lifetime of a connection, so role/claim updates aren’t reflected on existing connections.
  • Provides guidance on mitigation options (closing connections or performing “current data” checks).
  • Updates the bearer-token section to reference the new guidance.
