How to Enable LogoutOtherDevices Feature in Laravel Fortify

Introduction

If you're building a custom Laravel application using Laravel Fortify, you may have encountered the challenge of enabling the LogoutOtherDevices feature. This feature is crucial for enhancing user security, as it allows users to log out from other sessions on different devices remotely. While the need for this feature is evident, its implementation may not be straightforward, especially when documentation seems sparse. Fortunately, we've discovered a solution that will help you integrate this functionality smoothly.

The Problem: Lack of Guidance

Many developers face challenges when attempting to implement certain features in Laravel Fortify, particularly when there is little to no documentation available. One such feature is LogoutOtherDevices, which many users have struggled to set up. The issue is compounded when attempts to seek help on platforms like GitHub remain unanswered, leaving developers without a clear direction.

The Solution: Enabling LogoutOtherDevices

After investigating various sources and forums, I came across a recommendation by Robert Boes that successfully resolved my issue. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to enable the LogoutOtherDevices functionality in your application:

Step 1: Add the Middleware

The first step is to add the necessary auth.session middleware to your authentication routes. This middleware is essential as it manages sessions for authenticated users. Here’s how to do it:

Open your routes/web.php file (or the location where you define your routes as per your setup).

Ensure that you include the auth.session middleware for your authentication routes:

Step 2: Implement LogoutOtherDevices

Once the middleware is in place, you can call the Auth::logoutOtherDevices($password) method. This method will enable the authenticated user to log out from all other devices based on the given password. Follow these steps:

Retrieve the password from the user’s input (make sure to validate this properly).

Invoke the logoutOtherDevices method, passing the user's password as an argument:

Final Notes

Session-based Authentication: It is important to note that the logoutOtherDevices feature works exclusively with session-based authentication. If you're using token-based authentication methods, you'll need a different approach to manage user sessions across devices.

User Experience: Consider informing users about the implications of logging out of other devices, such as potential disruptions in active sessions.

Conclusion

The LogoutOtherDevices feature is a significant security enhancement for applications using Laravel Fortify. By following these simple steps, you will not only provide a safeguard for your users but also empower them to take control of their sessions across devices effectively. If you're looking to enhance the security features in your Laravel application, implementing this functionality is a great starting point.
