Permanent sessions False and session changes

[aktoak]

i noticed when making flask session not permanent in the config file using SESSION_PERMENANT = FALSE opposed to the default value which is true.
then the changes made to the session from socket.io routes are not passed to the http routes?
when using permanent sessions everything works as expected.
is there a way to fix this? or maybe explain why this is happening?

P.S i am using Flask-Sessions (server side sessions)

Do you have example code? Without knowing how you configured Flask and Flask-Session it is not possible for me to debug. If at all possible, it would be useful if you can modify the sessions example in this repository to show the problem. Thanks.

so after some research, turns out the problem was not with flask-socketio or flask-session but rather with flask-login, i had my
session_protection set to strong which caused current_user.is_authenticated to return false after calling login_user from socketio route
changing the session_protection to basic or None solves this issue depending on the needs.

Thanks,
