Express Session Not Retained When Accessed via WordPress Request

I currently have an expres.js application that works well with a session system and I want to integrate a blog part on wordpress.

To do this, I redirect the requests that start for /blog to my wordpress and it works well.

On the other hand, I'm having trouble recovering my session. In express, when I execute this code, I recover the session content.


app.get('/header', async (req, res) => {

  console.log("cookies",req.cookies)
  console.log('session',req.session)
  
});

Result :

cookies {
  plesk_technical_domain: '1',
  'connect.sid': 's:e77xx-xx'
}
session Session {
  cookie: {
    path: '/',
    _expires: 2026-02-12T07:29:15.590Z,
    originalMaxAge: 31536000000,
    httpOnly: true
  },
  flash: {},
  userId: '8b199300-8ce2-41b4-a3c3-3d8766b00597'
}

But when I call this same url (from the same domain, so no cross-domain problem) express receives the connect.sid cookie, but it can't find the userId contained in the session...

cookies {
  'wp-settings-time-1': '1739344846',
  plesk_technical_domain: '1',
  connect_sid: 's:e77xx-xx'
}
session Session {
  cookie: {
    path: '/',
    _expires: 2026-02-13T06:15:06.897Z,
    originalMaxAge: 31536000000,
    httpOnly: true
  },
  flash: {}
}

I don't understand what the problem is. I'm receiving a cookie that is identical, so the session should be identical.

The problem is that wordpress changed connect_sid to connect.sid and the cookie was not recognized.
