Accessing request context within SecuritySchemas method

[sugap91]

We are in the midst of upgrading connexion 2.x to 3.x and using it within Azure function apps (serverless). Converting FlaskApp to AsyncApp.

app = connexion.AsyncApp(__name__)
app.add_api(specification)
await func.AsgiMiddleware(app).handle_async(event, context)

We are using securitySchemes (x-bearerInfoFunc) in openapi for authentication and within the method we would like to access request context in order to access request method and url path to do some authorisation checks.

We were able to access it in connexion 2.x by flask.request.method and flask.request.path.
However, I am unable to access it in connexion 3.0 using from connexion import request and request.context. Facing the below error while trying to access,
Working outside of operation context. Make sure your app is wrapped in a ContextMiddleware and you're processing a request while accessing the context.

Only the bearer token gets passed to the securitySchemes method by default. Is there a way to access request variables within the method?

I think a reply that's exactly one year late is not helpful, but I'll post it anyhow. I hit a similar problem yesterday, only difference is that I'm using BasicAuth (not bearerInfo). Nope, the request is no longer available as a kind-of global. Happily the Connexion doc https://connexion.readthedocs.io/en/stable/security.html explains fairly clearly that you can declare parameter request in your auth-handler function and the request object will be injected. Took me a couple hours to find that.
