Overview 📈

Session management is a critical component of authentication systems, ensuring secure user interactions. Below are key operations and best practices for handling sessions in our API.

Key Operations 🔐

  • Create Session
    Use POST /api/auth/session to generate a new session token upon successful login.

    session_creation

  • Validate Session
    Check session validity with GET /api/auth/session/validate to ensure tokens are active and authorized.

    session_validation

  • Destroy Session
    Terminate an active session via DELETE /api/auth/session to revoke access.

    session_termination

Best Practices 🧠

  • Always use HTTPS to encrypt session data transmission.
  • Set secure cookies with HttpOnly and Secure flags for session tokens.
  • Implement session expiration timeouts to mitigate risks.
