Hi there! Users metadata update stopped working a while ago so I'm wondering if we're doing things right. Here is our current flow: 1. Login is done on the client side (with the netlify recipe) 2. A user can update a specific metadata. We have a route that calls

updateUserMetadata

, this works 3. Then client-side, we try to refresh the metadata and it does not work:

ts
  const attemptRefreshingSession = await Session.attemptRefreshingSession();
  const sessionExists = await Session.doesSessionExist();
  if (sessionExists) {
    const user_id = await Session.getUserId();
    const accessTokenPayload = await Session.getAccessTokenPayloadSecurely();

accessTokenPayload

contains the same metadata as before. User needs to logout and login again to see the refreshed metadata. What should we do?

json
    "supertokens-node": "^13.1.5",
    "supertokens-web-js": "^0.5.0",

hey @florian_lefebvre there is no implicit link between the session's access token payload and the user metadata recipe. So updating one does not auto update the other

ah makes sense! What's the recommended way of updating the session metadata then? I didn't see it in the docs but I've probably missed it

specifically

mergeIntoAccessTokenPayload

right?

yup

alright thanks a lot!
