Building Microservices API in Go - Refactoring the Verify API

In this video, the focus is on refactoring the verify method in the authorization process. The aim is to simplify error handling by ensuring the method returns errors in all false cases, leaving only true cases for response. The video also covers integrating app error for better error management and testing the refactored code. The process involves removing unnecessary boolean checks and simplifying the code structure, making it easier to read and maintain. The video concludes with a demonstration of testing scenarios using Postman and a brief cleanup of the code.
