Get session from another project

Store the session (/config/session.php) in a common folder you can get to them from each app. If you're using the same database, use database as session driver. You can also use a different driver so you can get them via the same service.

My initial thought was to use a Database handler for your sessions, and it might work, but I've never attempted something like that so I can't say. @bashy gives valid advice as well -- it should be possible. This thread also came up from a google search. Hopefully that helps, good luck!

I use redis (/config/session.php)

'driver' => 'redis', 

in project 2

{{ Session::get('user') }} 

I get nothing

As I replied in [ https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/carry-authenticate-from-one-site-to-another?page=1#reply-44774 ]

It works if you are using the same storage for session management for both apps (redis, memcached, shared session folder, ...)

If they are all in the same server it should work if you use the same APP_KEY (look in your .env file) and the same cookie identifier (look in your config\session.php file) in both apps. Actually I tested locally and it worked.

But it does not seem to be a good idea from a security point of view.

Yup, does work, I've already stated what they need to do :)
