hey < Vaune > I think at the time you had seen our docs it was outdated compared to the new SDK version Please empty cache and hard reload the docs and the new snippet should work

Using a different routing component other than the one we have can be tricky You can see how we have added the nextjs router here for example https github com supertokens next js blob canary examples with supertokens config frontendConfig ts L32 Would this kind of a method work for you

I ve tried a bunch of different things and I can t figure out how to wire this up correctly

rp · Answer

Right I m not familiar with this router and it may not be possibly to add it in without a change in the SDK

rp · Answer

But you can use the router for the rest of your app and use full page reload for the auth route And that would work

I ve gotten close I think I have a custom ui that uses supertoken on the backend I can sign in reset password signup ect

I m having trouble figuring out the logic behind routing setup

rp · Answer

For custom ui the routing is something that you control entirely

So that s outside the scope of supertokens

Can the <SessionAuth> component still be used to wrap a component for session handling redirection

rp · Answer

It can But then that wouldn t use your router

rp · Answer

So you should see the custom ui snippets

rp · Answer

And maybe make your own version on SessionAuth that uses your router
