Hello. I’m slowly wrapping my head around how sessions work. I’ve worked with Rails previously but that abstracts it away. I’m working on a Flask/Python app. Users have (row/node) IDs, so what should I know/do? Thanks! Also I’m using the option of redirecting to auth0, if that helps

Okay. The ID Token contains the user info and it was shown how to access it in the server.py file in the demo - the demo stores it in the session. Not sure if I didn’t read far enough or if I wasn’t ready to understand it.

How do I associate a session with a user in my database (their non-login info)?

Looks like I need to accept/retrieve the user profile/user_id. This is possibly sent with the JWT. I’ll keep looking for a tutorial on this. These helped target my search:
