Hello everyone

I am building an app with React and have used the React sdk from Auth0. I save the token in localstorage and everything is fine in normal Chrome mode but in Incognito, due to third-party cookies, it does not work, the getAccessTokenSilently method does not work, how can I solve it so that it also works in incognito mode?

Attached screenshots of index.tsx and file that save token in localstorage

I know that I have to use the refresh token but I don’t know how to do it exactly… help is appreciated

Hi there @rafa welcome to the community!

Chrome incognito doesn’t allow for third party cookies which is why `getAccessTokenSilently` isn’t working. To solve this, you would need to look into using a [Custom Domain](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/custom-domains) this way there is no reliance on third party cookies.

Hope this helps!
