Thank you! If anyone would just have an easy solution for global error handling (of just authentication/authorization errors) for superagent...

I am implementing the same solution, I am using jquery Datatables in my application. When I return 403 error, before logging out, it gives a jquery error in alert, and when user clicks OK, session logs out.

Is there a way to do it without that alert coming??

Note that returning it should return an http code 401 instead to be conform with the http standard
