After the user Authenticates, the SDK automatically stores the Access Token and Refresh Token for your convenience. To get the access token:
var cotter = new Cotter(API_KEY_ID)
cotter.tokenHandler.getAccessToken().then(tok => {
console.log(tok)
})
This function automatically refreshes the access token if it's expired. The returned access token would be in the form of a CotterAccessToken object which contains both the string and the decoded token.
After the user Authenticates, the SDK automatically stores the User Information. To get that information:
var cotter = new Cotter(API_KEY_ID)
var user = cotter.getLoggedInUser()
console.log(user)
To log out and remove these data, do the following:
var cotter = new Cotter(API_KEY_ID)
await cotter.logOut()
version >= 0.3.24If you used this API to get custom claims, and you received a new
refresh_token , you can update the refresh token stored in the user's browser by calling this method:var cotter = new Cotter(API_KEY_ID)
const resp = await cotter.tokenHandler.updateTokensWithRefreshToken(newRefreshTok)
console.log(resp)

After calling this method, it will automatically update all the
access_token, id_token and refresh_token with the new value. This means, when you call
cotter.tokenHandler.getAccessToken() next, you'll get an access token that has all the custom attributes.Access tokens and id tokens that are generated using this refresh token and subsequently returned refresh token will always have the custom claims.
New Logins will not have the custom claims because we don't attach the custom claims to the user itself.
