In Symfony, to have multiple sessions, you can create multiple session handlers with different names. Here's how you can achieve this:

  1. Define multiple session handlers in your config/packages/framework.yaml file:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
framework:
    session:
        handlers:
            primary:
                ...
            secondary:
                ...


  1. Use the desired session handler in your controller by setting the session.handler_id parameter:
 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
use SymfonyComponentHttpFoundationSessionSessionInterface;

class MyController extends AbstractController
{
    public function index(SessionInterface $session)
    {
        $session->setId('secondary');
        
        // Use the secondary session handler
    }
}


By following these steps, you can have multiple sessions in Symfony with different configurations.
