User Login

Call the create_new_session function: API Reference

supertokens_flask.create_new_session(res, user_id, jwt_payload, session_data);

• jwt_payload (type dict) should not contain any sensitive information.
• session_data (type dict) is stored in your database and can contain any information.
• This will attach all relevant cookies and header to the res object.

Example

from supertokens_flask import create_new_session
from flask import jsonify, make_response

@app.route('/login')
def login():
    user_id = 'userId'
    jwt_payload = {'name': 'spooky action at a distance'}
    session_data = {'awesomeThings': ['programming', 'javascript', 'supertokens']}
    response = make_response(jsonify({'userId': user_id}), 200)
    create_new_session(response, user_id, jwt_payload, session_data)
    return response
