I am using auth0-vue for user authentication. I have added the github login connection in my auth0 console, selected the permission to view the user repo. I have also created the github auth0 application in my developer settings and the login/permession process in my frontend work as expected. Then when the code and state is returned after the user logs in I am sending the code to my back end server to make the following request for the github access token:
def get_github_token(code: str, state: str = None):
conn = http.client.HTTPSConnection("github.com")
payload = ""
conn.request("POST", f"/login/oauth/access_token?code={code}&client_id={my_github_client_id}&client_secret={my_github_client_secret}", payload)
res = conn.getresponse()
data = res.read()
print(data.decode("utf-8"))
return None
But I keep getting:
error=bad_verification_code&error_description=The+code+passed+is+incorrect+or+expired.&error_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.github.com%2Fapps%2Fmanaging-oauth-apps%2Ftroubleshooting-oauth-app-access-token-request-errors%2F%23bad-verification-code
I have double and triple checked the github client id and secret I am using and they are correct, Where am I going wrong?
