Hi Torben,

There’s a discussion here that may give you a few ideas:

PhoenixLiveSession: Plug sessions with LiveView integration + PubSub support

Hey folks, I’ve just published a little library called PhoenixLiveSession. What is it? PhoenixLiveSession is a drop-in replacement for the default Plug.Session stores, comes with LiveView integration and Phoenix.PubSub support. Why did I create it? My motivation for this was a client project in which I wanted to implement a shopping cart using LiveView. I wanted to store the shopping cart data in the user session, but so far, doing this with LiveView required some hacky JavaScript trickery …

Or, you could use javascript hooks as described here: Persistent session data in Phoenix LiveView – The Pug Automatic - it’s a bit more roundabout, particularly if you want to share session state between liveviews.
