Overview
The issue arises when the current logged-in user information is not updated in the __NEXT_DATA__.props.pageProps.apolloState context object after logging into an Aurora instance.
This is expected behavior, and the object is not designed to reflect the authenticated user state dynamically. Instead, use authUser from auroraContext.pageContext or listen for the authChanged event to access current user details.
Information
Issue: Current logged-in user information not updating in __NEXT_DATA__.props.pageProps.apolloState after login
Resolution Steps:
-
Access Current User Information:
- Use
authUserfromauroraContext.pageContextto access the current authenticated user. This object updates reactively after login.
- Use
-
Listen for Authentication Changes:
- Implement a listener for the
authChangedevent. This event notifies your code when the authentication state changes, allowing you to update your logic accordingly.
- Implement a listener for the
-
Implementation Guidance:
- Update your implementation to use the recommended methods for accessing user context in Aurora.
- Ensure your code listens for the
authChangedevent to handle dynamic user data requirements.
Note: The __NEXT_DATA__.props.pageProps.apolloState object will continue to show user ID = -1 after login, as it is not designed to reflect the authenticated user state.
Frequently Asked Questions
