Not sure how to use CredentialsProvider properly

This is my code for the autorize function:

authorize: async credentials => {
    const user = await prisma.user.findFirst({
        where: {
            key: '...'
        }
    });

    console.log('RETURNING USER');
    console.log(user);

    return user;
}

authorize: async credentials => {
    const user = await prisma.user.findFirst({
        where: {
            key: '...'
        }
    });

    console.log('RETURNING USER');
    console.log(user);

    return user;
}

The user exists, it is returned, but the session state is never updated. What I'm trying to achieve, is that a user can log in with an oauth provider normally, or by providing a key (thats like a backup login) Each user in the db has a additional filed called "key" where their secret login key is stored But the session is never updated, it's still null, even though I'm returning the user object.

Yeah next-auth is super opinionated about using password credentials for good reasons but still quite annoying So you have to use the jwt strategy to even use it and then you have to deal with the credentials func and the session/token funcs too

if I turn the strategy to jwt, will I still be able to use oauth logins?

in terms of underlying infrastructure, what are the sort of things that will change when I switch to a jwt strategy? Like will I still have the User information saved to the db? Where will sessions be stored? Is there a part of the docs that explain this well? (couldn't find any good resource that compared the two strategies)
