Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/issues/1001

Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

To Reproduce

  1. Create a backend with fastify
  2. Initiated Auth instance with drizzle ORM and organization plugin
  3. Use create organization API method

Current vs. Expected behavior

I would like to create an organization, get a session, but I am continually getting UNAUTHORIZED

What version of Better Auth are you using?

1.1.1

Provide environment information

- OS: Macbook Pro
- Framework: Fastify

Which area(s) are affected? (Select all that apply)

Backend

Auth config (if applicable)

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { drizzleAdapter } from 'better-auth/adapters/drizzle'
import { organization } from 'better-auth/plugins'

import { db } from '@/db/connection'
import * as schema from '@/db/schema'
import { env } from '@/env'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: drizzleAdapter(db, {
    provider: 'pg',
    schema,
  }),
  plugins: [organization()],
})

Additional context

When I call createOrganization, or getSession or any api methods that needs the headers or some token the API returns UNAUTHORIZED

const organization = await auth.api.createOrganization({
        body: {
          name,
          slug: createSlug(name),
        },
        headers: new Headers(request.raw.headers as HeadersInit),
      })

LOG:

[APIError [BetterCallAPIError]: API Error: UNAUTHORIZED ] {
  status: 'UNAUTHORIZED',
  headers: Headers {
    'Set-Cookie': 'better-auth.session_token=; Max-Age=0; Path=/; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax, better-auth.session_data=; Max-Age=0; Path=/; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax, better-auth.dont_remember=; Max-Age=0; Path=/; HttpOnly; SameSite=Lax'
  },
  body: { code: 'UNAUTHORIZED' },
  [cause]: undefined
}

Hi, @arthurgrigoletto. I'm Dosu, and I'm helping the better-auth team manage their backlog. I'm marking this issue as stale.

Issue Summary:

  • The issue involves an "UNAUTHORIZED" error when using headers with Fastify to create an organization and get a session.
  • The problem seems related to session management, with session cookies being set with a Max-Age of 0.
  • @brunowego suggested an implementation example, which received mixed reactions.
  • @maumercado provided a link to a related GitHub repository, which was positively received.

Next Steps:

  • Please let us know if this issue is still relevant to the latest version of the better-auth repository by commenting here.
  • If there is no further activity, this issue will be automatically closed in 7 days.

Thank you for your understanding and contribution!
