When does this happen?
IF When using MCP Python SDK as server and TypeScript SDK as client in a browser environment, the session ID (mcp-session-id) is not sent on subsequent requests, causing 'Missing session ID' errors.
How others solved it
THEN Configure the server's CORS middleware to expose the 'mcp-session-id' header. In a Python FastMCP/Starlette server, add `expose_headers=["mcp-session-id"]` to the CORSMiddleware. In an Express.js server, set `exposedHeaders: ['mcp-session-id']` in the CORS configuration.
// Express.js example
app.use(cors({
exposedHeaders: ['mcp-session-id']
}));
# Python FastAPI/Starlette example
app.add_middleware(
CORSMiddleware,
allow_origins=["*"],
allow_credentials=True,
allow_methods=["*"],
allow_headers=["*"],
expose_headers=["mcp-session-id"]
