Authenticate session

Wraps Stytch's authenticate Session endpoint and validates that the session issued to the user is still valid. The SDK will invoke this method automatically in the background. You probably won't need to call this method directly. It's recommended to use session.getSync and session.onChange instead.

Method parameters

session_duration_minutes int

Response fields

request_id string

status_code int

session_jwt string

session_token string

member_session object

member object

organization object
