I can reproduce in staging! The weird thing is, when I searched through lots & data returned by OpenApp I saw "isFirstTimeExpensifyUser": "true" - I wonder if the problem is that there's just soooo much data coming back in that command?

cc @luacmartins I wonder if you have an idea what's going on here since you've worked a lot on OpenApp I think?

[Beamanator]

Marking Internal b/c this could definitely be related to our API side code

[luacmartins]

@Beamanator I did some quick debugging and the issue is that we no longer set the IS_LOADING_POLICY_DATA key in OpenApp, so this promise never resolves and we don't show the FAB menu. We have a PR that should fix this

[JmillsExpensify]

I'll assign myself them and keep track of the related PR.

[Beamanator]

Aah nice thanks for the link @luacmartins 👍

[luacmartins]

@Beamanator the App PR was merged, but I noticed that Auth can return 0 or 1 instead of a bool, which makes the first part of this conditional fail. So I put up a fix here.

[JmillsExpensify]

Given that both the linked PR that put this issue on hold is now on staging, and related, so is the PR fix mentioned immediately above, let's take this issue off hold, right?

[JmillsExpensify]

I'm going to go ahead and do that @Beamanator and @luacmartins, and at that point we're just waiting for both PRs to hit production for this issue to close. Yeah?

[luacmartins]

@JmillsExpensify that's correct!

[JmillsExpensify]

Awesome thank you!

[luacmartins]

Both PRs are in prod. Closing this issue, please reopen if needed!
