signOut Event Not Triggering on Session Expiration in NextAuth.js

[Navneet2213]

I'm using NextAuth.js and handling login/logout events to update the user's status in my database. However, the signOut event only triggers when a user manually logs out, but not when the session expires due to maxAge.

Issue:

• When a user manually logs out, the signOut event triggers as expected.
• But when the session expires after maxAge, the user is logged out, but the signOut event does not fire, so the logout status is not updated in my database.

Question:

• Is there a way to automatically trigger signOut when the session expires?
• If signOut isn't intended to be fired on expiration, what’s the recommended way to handle this scenario in NextAuth.js?

Thanks in advance! 🚀
