does anyone know how to make this happen in ktor client ?

fetch('<http://another.com>', {
  credentials: "include"
});

or what things to do, headers to set ?

that is an old bug I had reported and they haven't fixed
https://github.com/ktorio/ktor/issues/1187 .
Finally I decided to use fetch directly.

i could maybe use headers instead.. but websockets on JS cannot pass extra headers along either, so either way its broken

otherwise i am not even sure what can be done by ktor atm and how many of these calls i would have to refactor to expect/actual calls
as mentioned i am doing al ogin call and then authenticated calls wherei pass the sessionId along and opening a websocket, also using the sessionId

i have considered sending the sessionId as the first frame in the websocket, but it seems impossible to access the Session feature from outside on the ktor server, so i would have to reimplement the feature completely and handle it manually in ALL routes 😕

i forked ktor and added authentication: $authentication .. this works partially only.. it seems to get the cookie, it appears in the vchrome debugger at least, but following requests do not use it

[Nikky]

this is that changes basically.. ugly but it does something.. https://github.com/NikkyAI/ktor/commit/cebc83268bfd7deee9f039c29b834f0a30783f3d

tried printing out setCookie() of the response and i guessi still do not get cookies

[Nikky]

in the end i fixed it by exposing headers, managing them manually on the client and not using Ktor Sessions, instead rolling my own solution where the websocket can send the sessionId as first message and i can verify manually

This thread is pretty old. Does anybody have more recent info on how to set credentials: include on a JS client?

I'm using this, you can expand on it to handle errors better. I have the oauth2 token as a parameter so I can use it as a state in my components. Hope it helps
