Case: anonymous user is collecting products in his shopping cart, then signs in and the shopping cart need to be transferred to the loggen in user. This can be done in Mendix < 7 with the sign in microflow, works perfectly.
Mendix 7: from the upgrade documentation:
4.6 Sign-In Microflows
Sign-in microflows are no longer supported, because they do not add any functionality. In a future version, the state will be automatically transferred from the anonymous user to the signed-in user by the client. In Mendix 7, having a sign-in microflow selected will result in a consistency check error. When this is solved by setting the microflow to None, the property will automatically disappear from the UI.
It seems Mendix removed this feature without giving an alternative. "Do not add any functionality" is not correct, see my example case.
I'm hoping that i'm wrong and that there are work arounds for this. I was hoping that the session was reused when signing in from anonymous to logged in user. But that is also not the case.
So how am I going to transfer data from anonymous to logged in user in Mendix 7?
