Angular 10, .net core 5.0 backend API PKCE

Help

I have followed all of the online documentation and can’t successfully call custom backend API. I’m getting 401 Unauthorized response, with error message: www-authenticate: Bearer error=“invalid_token”

I’m using @auth0/auth0-angular npm package, and it’s attaching a bearer token to the request, but it’s not a valid jwt token. Am I missing a step?

Configuration:

AuthModule.forRoot({
  domain: 'xxxx.auth0.com',
  clientId: 'xxxxxxx',
  httpInterceptor: {
    allowedList: [
      { uri: 'https://localhost:44317/*' }
    ]
  }
}),

],
providers: [{ provide: HTTP_INTERCEPTORS, useClass: AuthHttpInterceptor, multi: true },],

Here’s the bearer token that is getting attached to the request:

authorization: Bearer -GdEMsgGB6PQA5RQ_EQLWoefS3GW1EOo

Thanks in advance,

William

Hi @wharris47,

Welcome to the Community!

It looks like you are getting an opaque token, which is only intended to be consumed by Auth0s APIs.

If you want to request a JWT that can be consumed by your custom API, you need to declare and audience, usually the indentifier you registered for your API.

If you would like to follow a tutorial, then check out the second part to the angular quickstart:

Thank you so much! I spent all weekend trying to get this to work. Awesome to see my API response on the 1st attempt!

I need to add email to the bearer token now, I think I came across docs on how to do that already.

Thanks again!

Chris
