08/23/2023, 11:12 AMhey @jj_9475
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:12 AMare they sub domains?
j
jj_9475
08/23/2023, 11:13 AMno, they are hosted on differnt platforms
r
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:13 AMthen you will have to use header based auth
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:13 AMthe apiDomain value should be the one which has the supertokens backend sdk integrated withit
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:14 AMfor the other domain, you will have to add the access token to the auth header manually
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:14 AMand you can fetch the access token on the frontend using Session.getAccessToken()

08/23/2023, 11:15 AMwell thanks will try this method.
jj_9475
08/23/2023, 11:33 AMone more question. How to verify the authorization token in the other end point? Do we have to check it manually or do we need to set up supertokens and check it via verify_session?
r
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:36 AMYou could use the verify_session function. But for that, you have to setup supertokens sdk in that endpoint too
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:37 AMif you don't want to setup our SDK there, you can follow this page: https://supertokens.com/docs/session/common-customizations/sessions/with-jwt/jwt-verification
j
jj_9475
08/23/2023, 11:39 AMwe have setup a sdk in that other server as well. but confused with initialization on api-domain and website-domain names.
r
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:40 AMboth those should be the same as what you set on the other backend
j
jj_9475
08/23/2023, 11:51 AMi am unable to find Session.getAccessToken() on frontend . how can i access this token from frontend
r
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:52 AMwhich version of the frontend sdk are you using?
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:52 AMand which frontend sdk?
j
jj_9475
08/23/2023, 11:53 AMwe are using react , supertokens-auth-react 0.18.0
r
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:54 AMoh i see. that's a much older version
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:54 AMit doesn't have that function in it
rp_st
08/23/2023, 11:54 AMfor your version, you would need to enable jwt on the backend, and then read that on the frontend via the access token payload.
