@auth0/nextjs-auth0 getAccessToken Error

Help

Hello,

I am working on implementing some logic into my nextjs endpoints that refreshes an api access token using a refresh token when the current token has expired. Here is a sample of my current code:

import {
  getAccessToken,
  withApiAuthRequired,
} from '@auth0/nextjs-auth0';
import { NextApiRequest, NextApiResponse } from 'next';
import afterRefresh from '../../../../utils/helpers/afterRefresh';

export default withApiAuthRequired(
  async (req: NextApiRequest, res: NextApiResponse) => {
    const { accessToken } = await getAccessToken(req, res, {
      refresh: true,
      afterRefresh,
    });
    try {
      const { body } = req;
      const result = await fetch(
        `${process.env.API_URI}/invitations/meetings`,
        {
          headers: {
            Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
            'Content-Type': 'application/json',
          },
          method: 'POST',
          body: body,
        }
      );
      const data = await result.json();
      return res.status(200).json(data);
    } catch (err) {
      return res.status(500).json({
        error: 'There was an error',
        message: err,
      });
    }
  }
);

During the call to getAccessToken() I am getting this error:

error - [Error [AccessTokenError]: The request to refresh the access token failed. CAUSE: access_denied (The first argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer, ArrayBuffer, or Array or an Array-like Object. Received undefined)] {
digest: undefined

Any help regarding this error would be very helpful. I am getting a valid refresh token and the NextApiRequest + NextApiResponse objects that are being sent to the getAccessToken function appear to be formed correctly. Thank you!

Hello @xdyer!

The error message shows that the req is not a valid type. Here are some examples of valid calls of the getAccessToken() method.

I see that you defined the req right before the call as NextApiRequest, which may not be one of valid types accepted as shown in the error code. Can you verify that the object being passed is a valid object?

Best,
Alex
