Exchange Intermediate Session

Exchange intermediate session

Wraps Stytch's exchange intermediate session endpoint. This method will fail if there is no intermediate session token present.

Intermediate session tokens are generated upon successful calls to primary authenticate methods in the case where MFA is required, such as email magic link authenticate, or upon successful calls to discovery authenticate methods, such as email magic link discovery authenticate.

If this method succeeds and the Member is not required to complete MFA, the Member will be logged in, granted an active session, and the session cookies will be minted and stored in the browser.

If this method succeeds and MFA is required, the intermediate session token will be stored in the browser as a cookie.

You can listen for successful login events anywhere in the codebase with the stytch.session.onChange() method or useStytchMemberSession hook if you are using React.
