I am using mongodb's stitch backend to run an application, and when I try to login as an anonymous user, it throws this error:
failed to log in anonymously: { StitchError: authentication via 'anon-user' is unsupported

I have anonymous authentication enabled in Stitch Admin Console, but it still throws this error. My app is not even able to perform any operations on the database before this happens, so I know it does not have to do with my app's Rules
.
Is there something I don't know about anonymous auth?
If you know where the mongodb error reference is, that would help as well.
Thanks
