Hi what is the difference between Sharing sessions across subdomains https supertokens com docs passwordless common customizations sessions share sessions across sub domains and working with multiple api endpoints https supertokens com docs passwordless common customizations sessions multiple api endpoints In my case I have one react front end and two APIs one is the default nextjs api routes and the second one is to get around their 4 5MB limits I m assuming I need to use the multiple api endpoints instructions which involves setting the cookie domain Is that correct Thank you for the help

So sharing cookies would imply that you have api domain com for your backend and you have frontend hosted on different subdomains a frontend com and b frontend com and you want your frontends to share sessions

Multiple api domains would imply that you have one single frontend frontend com and you have multiple api endpoints api com and api2 com
