I am experiencing an issue where the Single Logout (SLO) functionality provided by Okta does not clear the JWT cookies from my browser. After initiating SLO, the user is logged out from Okta, but the JWT cookies remain in the browser, which leads to authentication issues on subsequent visits.
Steps to Reproduce:
- User logs into the application via Okta.
- JWT cookies are set upon successful authentication.
- User initiates logout, which triggers the SLO process.
- Okta successfully logs the user out.
- JWT cookies remain in the browser after SLO.
Technical Details:
My post-logout URL request is attempting to clean the cookies using both JavaScript and backend (B.E) request.
