django + OAuth2: Sessions

[Anastasios Bakogiannis]

Hi everyone,

I am using python-social-auth to implement login via Google, Github, ... The problem I am having is that after the user is redirected to Google or Github the sessionid is reset. I want to preserve the sessionid in order to associate it later with the username.

I did some research but cannot find something online. The only thing I found was that the sessionid might be reset in the case of changing from http to https which is not the case since my website uses https.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks a lot guys,
T.

Hi,

You could try asking on the python-social-auth email list if you haven't.
