I am trying to setup an endpoint that can return information regarding the user login status.

My method looks like this:

[HttpGet]
public ActionResult IsLoggedIn()
{
     // this always returns false
     bool isLoggedIn = _memberManager.IsLoggedIn();
     if (isLoggedIn)
     {
         return Ok("User is logged in");
     }
     else
     {
         return BadRequest();
     }
}

For some reason, I cannot seem to be able to get a positive indication that the user is logged in. Even though I am sending along the auth cookie called ".AspNetCore.Identity.Application" that I got returned after the login.

On the other hand, in my login endpoint, if I check the status right after the succesfull login, the IsLoggedIn method returns true (obviously) 😉

Does anyone have a clue what I might be missing in my IsLoggedIn endpoint?
