Symfony3: Set Session Attribute with AJAX

Question

I'm using Symfony 3.1 and I try set a session attribute with AJAX. I saved something in the session before in a controller. Now I created a new controller for the AJAX request that looks like this:

AjaxController.php

namespace AppBundle\Controller;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;


class AjaxController extends Controller {

    /**
     * @Route("/addId/{id}", name="addId")
     */
    public function hideCookieMessageAction(Request $request, $id) {

        $session = $request->getSession();
        $session->set('id', $id);

        $response = new Response();
        return $response;

    }

}

ajax.js

$(document).ready(function() {

    $('.addIdButton').click(function {

        var id = 1;

        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: 'addId/' + id,
            async: false,
        })
        .fail(function() {
            alert('Couldn\'t add flat to wishlist');
        });

    });

});

I don't get any AJAX or JS error message. But if I look into the Symfony Profiler there is no new Session Attribute. I tried it with a cookie too and it worked. So I think it has nothing to do with a wrong AJAX call but with a wrong session handling in the controller.

Does someone has an idea?

seems all correct, try to refresh the page before check for the session attribute — Matteo

Check out your browser's debug tool.

I assume you are using Chrome in Windows, Ctrl+Shift+i opens Chrome's debug tool, click Network tab, and then do your AJAX request (click the buttn $('.addIdButton')), then the debug tool will show a new record, check the record if you request is really ok (status is 200 means ok otherwise it failed)
