Description

tldr; get responses back from cookies, but it doesn’t stored on the application, and still able to send it on every request.

I have a frontend framework with axios to communicate with backend fastapi. At first, cookies are set when tested with swagger UI. image

but, when requesting with axios from frontend, it show me an error, so I followed the instruction from this issueshttps://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/issues/3267

and now, I can get the responses but instead of getting cookies in browser, I only received responses and cookies are not setting in application tab. but when I send a request, cookies are always sent with requests.

Here is in detail: image image image

Here is my code:

Frontend ( Svelte + Axios )

async function onclick(e){
  axios.defaults.withCredentials = true;
  let info = {};
  const formData = new FormData(e.target);
  json = Object.fromEntries(formData.entries())
  await axios.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/login', json,  { withCredentials: true} )
    .then(response =>(
      info = response.data
    )
    )
  
    if (info.status == "Success"){
      console.log("Hello")
    }
}

Backend ( Fastapi )

@router.post('')
def login(response : Response,request: schemas.Login, db: Session = Depends(database.get_db)):
    user = db.query(models.Users).filter(models.Users.email == request.email).first()
    if not user:
        return "User doesn't exist"
    if not Hash.verify(user.password,request.password):
        return "Incorrect Password"
    access_token = jwttoken.create_access_token(data={"sub": user.email, "id" : user.id})
    response.set_cookie(
        key="token",
        value=access_token,
        httponly=True,
        secure=True,
        samesite='none',
    )
    return {"status": "Success", "token": access_token}

Middleware ( CORS )

origins = [
    "http://localhost",
    "http://localhost:3000",
]


middleware = [
    Middleware(
        CORSMiddleware,
        allow_origins=origins,
        allow_credentials=True,
        allow_methods=['*'],
        allow_headers=['*']
    )
]

app = FastAPI(middleware=middleware)
