Reactjs – Not able to access the cookie in any other route in Node

I am setting cookie on signup route
but when i go to home route, then cookie disappears from browser
The cookie is only present on signup route, when i change route then it gets deleted
Any solution for this?

res.cookie('token', token, { maxAge: 3600*1000, httpOnly: true, })

    Must specify the path for your entire site instead of signup route. Give a look into path and SameSite attributes.

    It sounds like the issue might be related to the cookie’s configuration, particularly the path or domain options.

    By default, a cookie is only available to the path where it’s set. To make it accessible across all routes, set the path option to ‘/’.

    Ensure that the cookie’s domain is set correctly, especially if you’re working with subdomains.

    res.cookie('token', token, { 
    maxAge: 3600 * 1000, 
    httpOnly: true, 
    path: '/'  // Make the cookie available across all routes
});

    This should make the cookie available on all routes of your application. If the issue persists, ensure that:

    • The browser is not blocking cookies.
    • You are not accidentally clearing or overwriting the cookie elsewhere in your code.
    • The domain and path settings are correct, especially if your application spans multiple subdomains.
