I am using OAuthSwift lib to call web services. We are using OAuth 1 at server side for authentication. But every time I call services it creates a new session at server side. by using Cookies Jar, my android app able to maintain session and no new session is created at server for same. But this not a case in IOS. The Code I tried is as follows

let oauthswift = OAuth1Swift(
consumerKey:"1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
consumerSecret:"5xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
)
oauthswift.client.credential.oauthToken = "cxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
oauthswift.client.credential.oauthTokenSecret = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

oauthswift.client.post(register_URL , parameters:requestDict, headers: ["Accept": "application/json", "Content-Type":"application/json"],success: { response in

    let dataString = response.string

    let data = dataString?.data(using: .utf8)
       do {
        //Parsing data & get the Array

    } catch let error as NSError {
        print("Failed to load: \(error.localizedDescription)")
        DispatchQueue.main.async {
            errorBlock(error.localizedDescription)
        }
    }
},
        failure: { error in
        print(error)
})

i also tried to keep the singleton pattern to keep oauthswift object same form to request but not helped. Also tried to set cookies in oAuthSwift Client as follows.

import Foundation
import OAuthSwift

class ClientHelper{

static var oauthswift:OAuth1Swift?

/* Create cookie and place in cookie storage */
static let cookieStorage = HTTPCookieStorage.shared
static func getInstance()->OAuth1Swift{


if(oauthswift == nil){
oauthswift = OAuth1Swift(
        consumerKey:"1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        consumerSecret:"5xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
     )
    oauthswift?.client.credential.oauthToken = "cxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
    oauthswift?.client.credential.oauthTokenSecret = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
    oauthswift?.client.sessionFactory.configuration.httpCookieStorage = cookieStorage
   oauthswift?.client.sessionFactory.configuration.httpShouldSetCookies = true

}
    return oauthswift!;

}
