Hi  
  
I am using Mautic with a custom CMS which handles its own assets.  
  
Leads are added with mautic API  
  
In order to track lead asset downloads, I added my assets to mautic as “remote url asset” and I’m making a request to the “remote url” in my custom CMS pages,  
  
problem is:  
  
How can I identify an authenticated user in CMS to match a lead in “remote url”?  
  
As I understand Mautic uses a cookie to identify users, can I fetch the identitiy token for a user and append it with my request headers?
