await
suspend fun SendbirdChat.awaitAuthenticate(userId: String, authToken: String? = null, apiHost: String? = null): AuthUser
Authenticates to SendbirdChat with given User ID and auth token. This method is different from SendbirdChat.awaitConnect in that it doesn't create a websocket connection. This should be used in below cases: 1. If you want to use the interface provided by the FeedChannel only. 2. If you want to use chat interface prior to SendbirdChat.connect, i.e. SendbirdChat.getTotalUnreadMessageCount.
