### Using Macaroons
To authenticate using macaroons you need to include the macaroon in the metadata of the request.
To authenticate using macaroons you need to include the macaroon in the metadata
of each request.
```js
const fs = require('fs');
const grpc = require('grpc');
process.env.GRPC_SSL_CIPHER_SUITES = 'HIGH+ECDSA'
// Lnd admin macaroon is at ~/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/simnet/admin.macaroon on Linux and
// ~/Library/Application Support/Lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/simnet/admin.macaroon on Mac
let m = fs.readFileSync('~/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/simnet/admin.macaroon');
let macaroon = m.toString('hex');
let meta = new grpc.Metadata().add('macaroon', macaroon);
let lnrpcDescriptor = grpc.load("rpc.proto");
let lnrpc = lnrpcDescriptor.lnrpc;
let client = new lnrpc.Lightning('some.address:10009', grpc.credentials.createInsecure());
client.getInfo({}, meta);
```
However, this can get tiresome to do for each request, so to avoid explicitly including the macaroon we can update the credentials to include it automatically.
The following snippet will add the macaroon to every request automatically:
```js
const fs = require('fs');
