Session will not be registered on Redis store when setting Options on Redis store

[Mozuha]

When the code like the below is run:

redisStore, _ := redis.NewStore(10, "tcp", "localhost:6379", "", []byte("secret"))
router.Use(sessions.Sessions("mysession", redisStore))

func CalledFirst(c *gin.Context) {
  session := sessions.Default(c)
  session.Set("count", 1)
  session.Save()
}

func CalledSecond(c *gin.Context) {
  session := sessions.Default(c)
  count := session.Get("count")
  fmt.Println(count)
}

It works fine. I could confirm that the value is correctly retrieved from the session and the session is registered as "session_randomstringkey" in my Redis container.

However, if I add Options to the Redis store as:

redisStore, _ := redis.NewStore(10, "tcp", "localhost:6379", "", []byte("secret"))
redisStore.Options(sessions.Options{Path: "/"})   // or set any arbitrary field
router.Use(sessions.Sessions("mysession", redisStore))

// same code as above follows...

It does not. The value of the variable count will be nil and nothing is registered in the Redis container.
Any clue?

Found the solution.
MaxAge should be added to the sessions.Options

session.Options(sessions.Options{
		Path:     "/",
		Domain:   "localhost",
		SameSite: http.SameSiteLaxMode,
		MaxAge:   86400 * 30, // 30 days
	})
