Laravel 8 , session in api is not working
hello , I have a shopping cart . I am working with VUE js in front , and storing this shopping cart in Laravel ( backend ) with session . Probably this is not the best way , but I have this code and it as working before . In laravel 6, I had to make some modification to make the session work with API in laravel , this modification in knew -
'api' => [
\Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession::class,
....
Like this example - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47878898/session-not-working-in-laravel-api
And my session -
// SAVE SESSION
$request->session()->put('cart' , $cart);
$request->session()->save();
// GET THE SESSION
$cart = $request->session()->get('cart');
dd($cart)
This code was working in Laravel 6 . but in Laravel 8 , is not working the session in API any more BUT it works in web routes ( outside of API ).

if you want sessions just put your routes in web.php

some other middlewares could be interfering, try to disable them systematically

@LaraCoder7 routes in api.php are STATELESS. (no sessions). Put your route in web.php if you want sessions
