Issues with express-session authentication (session management)

[ghost]

I am able to login the user and persist his session using the express-session package. Now the issue I am facing is when I navigate from page X to page Y how am I supposed to know if the session is still active since request, response parameters are available in getInitialProps only on the first load (custom server). I am however able to find if the session is active on the server when APIs are beginning called and can return a 403 back to the client. Also, I am using redux which is difficult with Next Js cause I am not able to figure out how to persist data on the client?

You'll likely need to persist the auth in a cookie.
