Python SDK - Sign Out Scope Not Working?

[LuksGabb]

Hey everyone, I'm using Supabase Python SDK and trying to sign out a user only from the current session while keeping other sessions active. I saw in the docs that sign_out() supports a scope parameter ("global", "local", "others"), but when I try:

await supabase.auth.sign_out(scope="local")

I get an error saying scope is not recognized. However, await supabase.auth.sign_out() works, but it removes all sessions instead of just the local one.

Is the scope option not implemented in Python yet? If so, is there any workaround for signing out of only the current session? Thanks!

Just to provide an update

after some further investigation, I found that the correct way to pass the scope parameter is by using the options dictionary format like this:

options = {"scope": "local"}  # or "global" or "others"
response = await supabase.auth.sign_out(options=options)
print("Sign-out response:", response)

This resolves the earlier issue where the scope was not recognized. The error no longer appears, but the problem now is that even with "scope": "local", the sign-out still affects all sessions, not just the current session.

Here are the logs:

INFO:     127.0.0.1:52085 - "GET /sessions/list HTTP/1.1" 200 OK
INFO:     127.0.0.1:52085 - "OPTIONS /sessions/sign-out HTTP/1.1" 200 OK
Sign-out response: None

I also checked the Supabase auth.py codebase in the GitHub repo and confirmed that the options parameter is correctly accepted as part of the sign_out() method.

this is my code

    async def sign_out(self, device_id: str):
        try:
            supabase = await self._get_supabase()
            
            # First terminate the device session
            await supabase.table('device_sessions')\
                .update({'status': 'terminated'})\
                .eq('device_id', device_id)\
                .execute()
                
            # Then sign out from Supabase auth
            options = {"scope": "local"}  # or "global" or "others"
            response = await supabase.auth.sign_out(options=options)
            print("Sign-out response:", response)
            
            return {
                "message": "Signed out successfully",
                "success": True
            }
        except Exception as e:
            print("Error during sign-out:", e)
            logger.error(f"Failed to sign out: {str(e)}")
            raise SessionError("Failed to sign out", 500)

However, it still signs out all sessions instead of only the current session. If anyone has experienced this or found a solution, any help would be appreciated!

Update: Supabase Python SDK - Local Scope Deleting Session

I wanted to share a further update after testing the scope parameter. It seems like when I set the scope to "local", the session gets deleted from the auth.session table, as expected. However, the issue I'm facing now is that other sessions are still not authenticated, even though they are not supposed to be affected.

Here are the new behaviors:

• scope="local": Deletes the current session from the auth.session table but keeps other sessions.

• However, after deleting the local session, the other sessions are no longer authenticated. When I try to access them, I get the error:
  No auth session found

  And the log looks like this:

  INFO:     127.0.0.1:52770 - "GET /sessions/list HTTP/1.1" 200 OK
  INFO:     127.0.0.1:52770 - "OPTIONS /sessions/sign-out HTTP/1.1" 200 OK
  INFO:     127.0.0.1:52770 - "GET /sessions/list HTTP/1.1" 401 Unauthorized
  

• scope="global": Works as expected and signs out all sessions.

It seems like using "local" does remove the session, but the other sessions aren't correctly authenticated anymore, which results in a 401 Unauthorized error.

Code Example:

options = {"scope": "local"}
response = await supabase.auth.sign_out(options=options)
print("Sign-out response:", response)

You should show what your sessions/list endpoint is doing. I've tested this and cannot replicate your issue. I've created an example with a readme to follow to get it setup https://github.com/silentworks/sb-python-issues/tree/main/supabase_signout_scope
