Returns the session_token and session_jwt values associated with the logged-in user’s active session. Session tokens are only available if:

There is an active session, and
The session is not managed via HttpOnly cookies.

If either of these conditions is not met, getTokens will return null.

The Stytch SDK stores the session_token and session_jwt values as session cookies in the user’s browser. Those cookies will be automatically included in any request that your frontend makes to a service (such as your backend) that shares the domain set on the cookies, so in most cases, you will not need to explicitly retrieve the session_token and session_jwt values using the getTokens method. However, we offer this method to serve some unique use cases where explicitly retrieving the tokens is necessary.

Response
