session data is null despite session cookie

so i have a hono api and i've writtten a custom middlware to check for authentication which works fine locally however, in prod (deployed on cf workers) despite the headers containing the session cookie the session is null, here's my middleware: https://github.com/777advait/better-auth-monorepo/blob/main/apps/api/src/middlewares/authenticated.ts server logs: ``` GET https://better-api.astro-dev.tech/api/auth/me - Ok @ 7/27/2025, 11:07:06 PM...

Solution:

i fixed it! it was a cloudflare issue, i was instantiating an auth instance in my api app, and the base URL of that was a worker, workers dont allow communication among each other over public network, the requests fail silently (no messages no warnings), it can only be permitted via service bindings https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/configuration/routing/custom-domains/#worker-to-worker-communication https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/bindings/service-bindings/ i just moved my auth stuff into the api app so there's no worker-worker communication, everything sits in one place, it'd be good to be able to define custom fetch functions when instantiating auth instances in future...

Completely different user flows

What would be the recommended approach for handling vastly different user types with better auth? I have, for example, students and teachers that have different requirements and sign up flows with many additional fields. Should I make two separate auth instances with their own db tables and routes or keep just one instance with roles and do table joins for other fields?...

Multi-tenancy with drizzleAdapter

Hi everyone 👋 I'm working on a multi-tenant application where the database (Postgres) is determined based on the current domain or subdomain. I've customized the migration workflow so I can apply the same migrations across multiple schemas or databases — that part is working fine. Now I'm facing an issue with the drizzleAdapter used in authentication. The current implementation connects to a fixed schema, but in my case, I need it to connect dynamically based on the current tenant....

Authclient SSR

I'm very confused, can you help me? I have a Hono backend application and I use nextjs for frontend purposes. I query the session in SSR with authClient.getSession. I solved the issue of the session not coming without adding headers to the fetchOptions section. However, when I publish it, the SSR session query that works locally stops working. What could be the potential cause?...

TypeScript Error: Extended Core Schema’s isAdmin Not Recognized on User

I’ve extended my Core schema to add an isAdmin: boolean flag to the User type and included the same “mac and resolve” middleware in my app to enforce admin checks. The application runs perfectly and correctly verifies a user’s admin status at runtime, but TypeScript still complains that user.isAdmin does not exist on type User. Has anyone encountered this before? What am I missing in my type declarations or module augmentation to get TypeScript to recognize the new isAdmin property? Any help would be greatly appreciated—thanks!...

How to persist next-intl locale during social-provider sign-up?

I can’t figure out how to reliably save the user’s locale during social-provider sign-up (Google, GitHub, etc.). My app uses next-intl, so the locale is always a path param (/en/…, /cs/…). With email+password I simply send locale in the body, but OAuth redirects lose this value. Current attempt Client (Next.js 15 + better-auth 1.3.2):...

Solution:

Solution: ``` if (ctx.path.startsWith("/callback/")) { //Here just use a /callback/ to catch all OAuth routes const newSession = ctx.context.newSession ?? ctx.context.session; if (newSession) {...

auth in distributed system

i wanted to build a distributed system with a standalone auth server that is used by both my hono api and nextjs frontend, since im using a monorepo my plan is to create a shared auth package with auth server and client instances, then create a separate hono server that uses the auth server instance for handling requests, and then the same auth client and server instances can be used in my api and frontend wanted to know if this is a good mental map or there would be some better apporaches to this...

Verification table not populating

I am unsure what is happening at the moment but my emailVerification process works as intended except for it not populating a new row in the verification table. I'm not sure what would be causing this issue as I used the drizzle-kit to generate the schemas. ```js emailAndPassword: {...

How are built-in API endpoints / routes enabled?

According to the docs when using emailandpassword on the server one can use the endpoint /sign-up/email, https://www.better-auth.com/docs/authentication/email-password#sign-up. So when I Hono is set up, like in the bun-hono-better-auth project, https://github.com/ProMehedi/bun-hono-better-auth/blob/main/server/src/server.ts

// Better-Auth - Handle all auth routes
app.all('/api/auth/*', async (c) => {
  return await auth.handler(c.req.raw)
})

TanStack Query + Better-Auth

Do you guys use TanStack Query with Better Auth? I use it as my async manager for my own api calls. But was wondering if I should with better-auth authClient calls? Wrap it in TanStack Query? Cause I would use its cache invalidation for queries when mutations were done. Without it, idk how to handle authClient queries being fetched again on mutation....

Export disappeared

import { type UserWithRole } from 'better-auth/plugins';

import { type UserWithRole } from 'better-auth/plugins';

This export suddenly disappeared from the library, why did it get private?...

Solution:

I'm not sure why it got private, but I do think it's better practice to use the inferred User from your auth instance as that should include role if you're using the admin plugin
