In hybrid flow docs

there is example of code for node js

2021-11-13_14-36_1
2021-11-13_14-36_11654×1312 200 KB

but is incorrect, because for cURL we have

2021-11-13_14-36
2021-11-13_14-361704×864 91.6 KB

So on request catcher we can see difference This is correct request body [ from cURL ]

.
and this is request body from node js axios example

2021-11-13_14-35_1
2021-11-13_14-35_12102×720 84.7 KB

So instead of object in “data” key of axios we should use this code to fix it:

const options: AxiosRequestConfig = {
    method: 'POST',
    url: `https://${AUTH0_DOMAIN}/oauth/token`,
    headers: {'content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'},
    data: new URLSearchParams([
        ['grant_type', 'authorization_code'],
        ['client_id', AUTH0_CLIENT_ID],
        ['client_secret', AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET],
        ['code', cred.code],
        ['redirect_uri', `http://${HOST}/callback`]
    ]).toString()
};

I tested it and this exemplary option works, but options from example in docs give incorrect body format ignoring application/x-www-form-urlencoded type.
