Yes, you can call the

/sessions/whoami

endpoint to check if there is a valid session for the user. This can be done every time a route changes in your Vue.js application. This endpoint uses the HTTP Headers in the GET request to determine who is authenticated. If the user has a valid session, it returns a session object in the body. If the credentials are invalid or no credentials were sent, it returns a 401 status code. In your Vue.js application, you can use the Ory SDK to make this request. Here is an example of how you can do this:

javascript import { FrontendApi, Configuration } from "@ory/client"  const basePath = process.env.VUE_APP_ORY_URL || "<http://localhost:4000>"   const ory = new FrontendApi(    new Configuration({    basePath,    baseOptions: {    // Ensures we send cookies in the CORS requests.    withCredentials: true,    },    }),   )    ory.toSession().then(({ data }) => {    this.session = data   })

In this example,

ory.toSession()

is used to fetch the session directly from Ory. If the user is logged in,

this.session

will be set to the session data. You can call this function every time a route changes to check if the user has a valid session. Remember to handle the case where the user is not logged in (i.e., when a 401 status code is returned). You might want to redirect the user to a login page in this case.

Yes, you can call the

/sessions/whoami

endpoint to check if there is a valid session for your Vue app. This can be done every time a route changes to ensure the user is still authenticated. You can use the

toSession()

method provided by the Ory SDK to check the session status. If the user is signed in and has an active session, the system will return a

200 OK

response and the session payload. If the user doesn't have an active session, the system will return a

401 Unauthorized

response. Here is an example of how you can implement this in your Vue.js application:

javascript import { FrontendApi, Configuration } from "@ory/client"  const frontend = new FrontendApi(  new Configuration({    basePath: "<http://localhost:4000>", // Use your local Ory Tunnel URL    baseOptions: {      withCredentials: true,    },  }), )  export function checkSession() {  const [session, setSession] = useState<Session>(undefined)   useEffect(() => {    frontend      // the cookie is automatically sent with the request      .toSession()      .then(({ data: session }) => {        setSession(session)      })      .catch((error) => {        // The session could not be fetched        // This might occur if the current session has expired      })  }, [])   return session }

This function can be called every time a route changes to check if the user's session is still valid.
