How to update `api/auth/get-session` with new session data?

I am updating the users table with the new name but accessing

api/auth/get-session

api/auth/get-session

gives the old data. Is there a way to trigger an update when the database is updated so session data is also updated?

I am using tanstack start. ```import { createAPIFileRoute } from '@tanstack/react-start/api'

import { auth } from '@/lib/auth'

export const APIRoute = createAPIFileRoute('/api/auth/$')({
GET: ({ request }) => auth.handler(request),
POST: ({ request }) => auth.handler(request),
})

first I recommend using to update the user name. It'll handle invalidating and updating the cache. If you need to manually update, you can pass as a query param when you call

getSession

getSession

to update the cache

@bekacru thanks for the response, is it possible the

queryClient.invalidateQueries

queryClient.invalidateQueries

invalidate the cache?

It should unless you've enabled cookieCache. But you can also just call which invalidate the cache for you

generator101OP•4/6/25, 5:11 AM

@bekacru Yes, you were right, in my config I had it enabled, after disabling it everything gets invalidated

or at least i could modify the client's session?

or setting cookies manually after the response

skidy•4/12/25, 10:28 AM

i don't get this, but i'm using nextjs. should it work automatically? i'm not even sure how to manually set it

skidy•4/12/25, 10:38 AM

but with database hook, how can i make it accept

File

File

object?

skidy•4/12/25, 10:44 AM

bruh,

refetch

refetch

function exist in

authClient.useSession

authClient.useSession

skidy•4/12/25, 10:48 AM

but it would nice if i could update the session without refetching

Sskidy but with database hook, how can i make it accept `File` object?

KiNFiSH•4/12/25, 10:50 AM

If you are using database hook you can upload the image and directly get the url from that and update your fields with that url

No your file field is gonna be string I mean link of the uploaded file which is uploaded before hand

skidy•4/12/25, 11:04 AM

uploading it in client side wouldn't work and it's not safe

KiNFiSH•4/12/25, 11:05 AM

That's up to your storage service if it provide an API keys or any kind pre signed url stuff that needs to process from server or client side plus database is not running on client side as well

skidy•4/12/25, 11:05 AM

File

File

is from the browser uploaded by the user, and then get its data to upload it to s3 now if the process is successful i couldn't get its url and update user

skidy•4/12/25, 11:06 AM

so it wouldn't be a string until i upload it

Sskidy so it wouldn't be a string until i upload it

KiNFiSH•4/12/25, 11:06 AM

Yeah write your logic there at db hook and get the url back since all pre signing will handle s3

bekacru•4/12/25, 11:19 AM

He is suggesting to upload the image first and then call

updateUser

updateUser

. Which would be a bit slow since you'd have 2 round trips instead of one

bekacru•4/12/25, 11:23 AM

If you're using nextjs, just keep on what you're currently doing. If you munted

nextCookies

nextCookies

plugin in your auth config, it should update the cache for you when you call

skidy•4/12/25, 11:47 AM

thanks, i have missing configuration

skidy•4/12/25, 11:50 AM

but nextCookies only works with server actions, but not on api calls
