Hi there,  
I am using the MERN stack website for Auth0. And every time I refresh the page, it redirects to the Auth0 login page while the session cookie is not expired yet. I did the same with the Auth0 tutorial and i have set

```auto
      useRefreshTokens={true}

```

to true but somehow it does not work.  
Please helpppp

Hi @phu0n9,

Try adding the cacheLocation option as well. See this topic for more info:
