How to update session in Auth.js v5?

[patrickariel]

There has been a few issues documenting this problem, but they were all closed:

• useSession()'s session.update() does not trigger session update #11002
• update() does not work as documented #11018

So I'm wondering, is update working for anyone at all? My use-case was that I was trying to update the name field in the database and updating the session to reflect it. I already have a working database adapter setup, but the name field only gets filled after logging out and then logging back in.

Anyone have any solutions?

Did you find out the solution to the problem for your use case? I am having a similar problem and can't seem to figure out.

This is such a mess, as with everything in Auth.js... session.update() indeed doesn't work... The latest docs don't mention updating the session at all whatsoever, the only reference is the UpdateSession() , but it doesn't actually update anything and the "trigger" event in the jwt or session callbacks is always null...
