My GitHub connection has suddenly stopped working. It was working yesterday, but today it is returning this error.

{
  "error": "invalid_request",
  "error_description": "Failed to obtain access token"
}

Any idea what I can do to fix this?

Hi @TerenceEden

Welcome back to the Auth0 Community!

The error usually indicated a misconfiguration between the Github connection and Auth0.

Please double check the connection and if the client ID and secret are properly set within Auth0.

If you continue to experience issues after confirming the configuration is correct, let me know!

Kind Regards,
Nik

There was no misconfiguration. Nothing had changed on my end.

I went into Auth0, turned it off, then turned it on again.

Does Auth0 do any error monitoring to detect and prevent these sorts of issues? I didn’t get any alerts from you - only from my users.
