Hi, I know regular DO Load Balancers offer sticky sessions, but I’m curious if the balancers in App Platform also do? If so how would one configure that setting?

Hello, sticky sessions like in DigitalOcean Load Balancer utilizing cookies to route follow-up requests from the same client to a single instance of a service within the app is not supported currently. If you’re looking to use this type of mechanism for auth related purpose, it is recommended to store login sessions in a shared database. Redis is commonly used for this. Hope this helps!
