Can you show how you added HandleInteriaRequests to /app/Http/Kernel.php ? Maybe it comes before StartSession

Inertia Auth()->User()->name is null
Feel Like I'm on this forum every day with Inertia haha.
If I dd() in my web route for dashboard after logging in:
Route::get('/', function() {
dd(auth()->user()->name);
return Inertia::render('Home');
});
This works and returns the logged-in user, However:
If I go to The Class HandleInteriaRequests to define my authenticated users name I get an error that its null there is no authenticated user any ideas 100% logged in
public function share(Request $request): array
{
return array_merge(parent::share($request), [
'auth' => [
'user'=> [
'username' => dd(auth()->user()->name)
]
]
]);
}

@Elliot_putt Ok. Try lazy evaluation
return array_merge(parent::share($request), [
'auth' => [
'user'=> [
'username' => function() {
return dd(auth()->user()->name);
}
]
]
]);

@sinnbeck thank you for this precious advice, been facing the same problem for two days... Can you, please, explain what is the trick with this lazy evaluation and why synchronous returns null?
