@chilly-king-10285 When using an auth code grant flow, after
/challenge
is successful, I'm not being redirected to the postback URL, as specified in the original auth request.

A message from kapa.ai
In the OAuth2 authorization code flow, after the user grants permission, the Authorization Server should generate an authorization code and redirect the user back to the requesting application with the authorization code. This is typically done by redirecting the user to the
redirect_uri
specified in the original authorization request. If you're not being redirected to the postback URL, there could be a few reasons for this: 1. The
redirect_uri
was not correctly specified in the original authorization request. Make sure that the
redirect_uri
is correctly set in the request parameters when initiating the authorization flow. 2. The
redirect_uri
was not pre-registered with the OAuth2 client. The
redirect_uri
needs to be pre-registered with the OAuth2 client for security reasons. 3. The Authorization Server encountered an error when trying to generate the authorization code or redirect the user. Check the server logs for any error messages. 4. The user did not grant permission. If the user does not grant permission, the Authorization Server will not generate an authorization code and will not redirect the user to the
redirect_uri
. If you're still having issues, you might want to check the Ory documentation or reach out to the Ory community for further assistance.

Based on the information provided, it seems like you're initiating an OAuth2 authorization code flow by making a GET request to the
/oauth2/auth
endpoint. This request includes the following parameters: - `response_type=code`: This indicates that you're using the authorization code flow. - `client_id=d6bc2f5b-2a43-45b0-bfaf-3f9a902c143f`: This is the ID of your OAuth2 client. - `redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A3001%2Fapi%2Fauth%2Fcallback`: This is the URL that the user will be redirected to after they grant or deny permission. This URL needs to be pre-registered with the OAuth2 client. - `scope=read%3Abadges%20create%3Aplayer-actions`: These are the permissions that your application is requesting. - `state=WjpUGmvSoUfplNM2`: This is a random string that is used to prevent CSRF attacks. If the request is authenticating properly, that means the user is being redirected to the Ory login page where they can enter their credentials and grant or deny permission. After the user grants permission, they should be redirected back to the
redirect_uri
with an authorization code. If you're not being redirected back to the
redirect_uri
, please refer to my previous message for possible reasons and solutions. Unfortunately, without more specific information about the issue you're experiencing, it's difficult to provide a more detailed answer. If you're still having issues, you might want to check the Ory documentation or reach out to the Ory community for further assistance.

@chilly-king-10285 How do I make localhost OAuth2 requests that tunnel to our dev instance of Ory Network?
c
A message from kapa.ai
To make localhost OAuth2 requests that tunnel to your dev instance of Ory Network, you can use the Ory Tunnel. The Ory Tunnel is a development tool bundled with the Ory CLI that allows you to tunnel the Ory APIs on a port on your local machine. This allows cookies to be set on the same domain as the application is running, which is required for the Ory security model. Here are the steps to set up the Ory Tunnel: 1. First, set up the Ory SDK URL which you can find in the Ory Console. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
Copy code
bash export ORY_SDK_URL=https://{project.slug}.<http://projects.oryapis.com|projects.oryapis.com>
2. Start the Ory Tunnel by running the following command in your terminal:
Copy code
bash npx @ory/cli tunnel --dev <http://localhost:3000>
The
--dev
flag disables security checks for easier integration and should not be used when deploying the Tunnel to a staging environment. After running these commands, the Ory APIs are now mirrored on
<http://localhost:4000>
. You can use that URL as the
baseUrl
for the
@ory/client
SDK. Please note that the Ory Tunnel should be used for development purposes only. Do not use the Ory Tunnel in a production environment. For more information, you can refer to the [Ory Tunnel documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/cli/proxy-and-tunnel#ory-tunnel) and the [Ory CLI documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/cli/ory-tunnel#ory-tunnel). Sources: - [Ory Tunnel documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/cli/proxy-and-tunnel#ory-tunnel) - [Ory CLI documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/cli/ory-tunnel#ory-tunnel) - [Integrate authentication into React](https://www.ory.sh/docs/getting-started/integrate-auth/react#run-ory-apis-on-localhost) - [Integrate authentication into Vue.js + API](https://www.ory.sh/docs/getting-started/integrate-auth/vue#run-ory-apis-on-localhost)

@chilly-king-10285 How do I develop locally using the tunnel?
c
A message from kapa.ai
To develop locally using the Ory Tunnel, you need to follow these steps: 1. Export the SDK of your project. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
Copy code
bash export ORY_SDK_URL=https://{your-project-slug-here}.<http://projects.oryapis.com|projects.oryapis.com>
2. Start the Ory Tunnel by running the following command in your terminal:
Copy code
bash ory tunnel --dev --project {project.slug} <http://localhost:3000>
This command opens the
4000
port on your local machine. The
--dev
flag disables a few security checks to make local development easier. After starting the Tunnel, you can test it by performing the registration flow at
<http://localhost:4000/ui/registration>
. 3. When developing locally, make sure to send any HTTP calls you make to
<http://localhost:4000>
and not
https://{your-slug}.<http://projects.oryapis.com|projects.oryapis.com>
. For example, when you configure the Ory SDK (here in Node.js):
Copy code
javascript import { Configuration, FrontendApi } from "@ory/client"      const frontend = new FrontendApi(    new Configuration({    // Replace    // basePath: "https://{project.slug}.<http://projects.oryapis.com|projects.oryapis.com>",    // with    basePath: "<http://localhost:4000>",    baseOptions: {    withCredentials: true,    },    }),   )      const { data: login } = await frontend.createBrowserLoginFlow()   const { data: session } = await frontend.toSession()   // ...
Only the
FrontendApi
needs to access the Ory Tunnel. Administrative APIs like
IdentityApi
can be accessed directly from your project slug, although they also work via the Ory Tunnel. Please note that the Ory Tunnel should be used for development purposes only. Do not use the Ory Tunnel in a production environment. For more information, you can refer to the [Ory Tunnel documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/cli/proxy-and-tunnel#ory-tunnel) and the [Ory CLI documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/cli/ory-tunnel#ory-tunnel). Sources: - [Ory Tunnel documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/cli/proxy-and-tunnel#ory-tunnel) - [Ory CLI documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/cli/ory-tunnel#ory-tunnel) - [Local development guide](https://www.ory.sh/docs/getting-started/local-development#local-development)

@chilly-king-10285 Using OAuth2 challenge flow, I'm being redirect properly to
<http://localhost:3001/auth?login_challenge={challengeCode}>
as expected, and that's working fine, but then I'm not being redirected to the previous redirect URL as specified in the original request.
c
A message from kapa.ai
If you're not being redirected to the original redirect URL after the login challenge is successful, there could be a few reasons for this: 1. Misconfiguration: The most common cause of issues in the OAuth 2.0 authorize code flow is misconfiguration. Make sure that all the parameters in your request are correct and that your OAuth2 client is properly configured ([source](https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/debug#oauth-20-authorize-code-flow-fails)). 2. Redirect URI mismatch: Ensure that the
redirect_uri
query parameter in the URL matches the authorized redirect URI added to the OAuth2 client. If there's a mismatch, you might encounter errors ([source](https://www.ory.sh/docs/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-social-sign-in#redirect_uri-mismatch)). 3. Incorrect handling of the login challenge: When an OAuth 2.0 Flow is initiated, Ory asks the login provider to authenticate the subject and then tell the Ory OAuth2 Service about it. The login provider uses the login challenge to fetch information on the OAuth2 request and then accept or reject the requested authentication process. If this process is not handled correctly, it could lead to issues with the redirect ([source](https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/reference/api)). To debug this issue, you can check the Ory logs for any error messages or warnings. If you're still having issues, you might want to check the Ory documentation or reach out to the Ory community for further assistance.

@chilly-king-10285 Getting a 401 when calling
getOAuth2LoginRequest
. The SDK is initialized with the Ory Network API endpoints and our API key.
c
A message from kapa.ai
A 401 error typically indicates an issue with authentication. When calling
getOAuth2LoginRequest
, you need to be authenticated by means of one of the following methods:
oryAccessToken
([source](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api)). Here are a few things you can check: 1. API Key: Make sure that the API key you're using is correct and has the necessary permissions to access the
getOAuth2LoginRequest
endpoint. 2. SDK Initialization: Ensure that the SDK is properly initialized with the correct Ory Network API endpoints and your API key. 3. Error Response: Check the error response for more details. The error response includes properties like
error
,
error_debug
,
error_description
, and
error_hint
that can help you identify the cause of the error ([source](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api)). If you're still having issues, you might want to check the Ory documentation or reach out to the Ory community for further assistance.

Access credentials are invalid
c
A message from kapa.ai
The error message "Access credentials are invalid" typically means that the username, password, email address, or phone number you provided during the authentication process is incorrect. This could be due to a typo or spelling mistake in your credentials. Here is the error message in a machine-readable format:
Copy code
json {    "id": 4000006,    "text": "The provided credentials are invalid, check for spelling mistakes in your password or username, email address, or phone number.",    "type": "error"   }
Please double-check your credentials and try again. If you're still having issues, you might want to reset your password or contact the system administrator for further assistance.

Which access token do I provide when creating
OAuth2Api
? @chilly-king-10285
c
A message from kapa.ai
When creating
OAuth2Api
, you should provide the access token that you received during the OAuth2 authentication process. This token is used to authenticate your requests to the Ory APIs. Here's an example of how to create
OAuth2Api
with the access token:
Copy code
javascript import { Configuration, OAuth2Api } from "@ory/client"  const ory = new OAuth2Api(  new Configuration({    basePath: `https://${process.env.ORY_PROJECT_SLUG}.<http://projects.oryapis.com|projects.oryapis.com>`,    accessToken: process.env.ORY_API_KEY,  }), )
In this example,
ORY_API_KEY
is the environment variable that holds your access token. Make sure to replace
ORY_PROJECT_SLUG
with your actual project slug. Please note that you should keep your access token secure and avoid exposing it in your client-side code or version control system. Source: [Ory Documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/oauth2-oidc/jwt-access-token#per-client-configuration)
