GetRefreshTokenCookie

Reads the package refresh-token cookie from an HttpRequest. The helper looks up the cookie name from CookieNames.RefreshToken, so application code can read the same cookie that SetRefreshTokenCookie writes.

Use this in refresh-token endpoints when the access token has expired and the API needs to retrieve the refresh token sent by the browser. The method returns null when the cookie does not exist, allowing the endpoint to return an unauthorized response or start a new sign-in flow.

Usage

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http;
using AlmightyShogun.AspNet.JwtAuth;

var httpContext = new DefaultHttpContext();
httpContext.Request.Headers.Cookie = "refreshToken=abc123";

string? refreshToken = httpContext.Request.GetRefreshTokenCookie();

Returns

The refresh-token cookie value, or null when the cookie is not present.

Type signature

public string? GetRefreshTokenCookie();
