Returned value for 'is_favorite' field on Get Courses dependent on Auth Token used?

Hi Devs,

While developing for an lti tool integration and using get courses for a user api with the ?include[]=favorites parameter, it is successful returning the boolean values for the courses, however it's returning false for all courses when I use an admin user auth token, and it's returning the correct true/false designations when I use an auth token created on that user.  

When using user's auth token after favoriting this course in the Canvas UI: 

286209_Favorites_user_auth.png

When using admin's auth token:

286210_Favorites_admin_auth.png

Is this the intention of auth tokens?  Is there a way to create an auth token or to authenticate to get this information?

Thanks,
Jerry
