Greetings all,
I’m working on getting Auth0 to work for both user authentication in my Angular SPA which uses a Rails API backend. The Angular QuickStart seems to have worked as I’m able to login/logout of my app as expected.
I completed the Rails API QuickStart but I’m getting the following errors when I attempt to test the endpoint as indicated in the Quickstart or use the id_token obtained by logging into my Angular app in curl to verify that everything is working as expected:
Quickstart curl test output:
{"error":"unauthorized_client","error_description":"
Grant type 'client_credentials' not allowed for the client.",
"error_uri":"https://auth0.com/docs/clients/client-grant-types"}
~/wdi/frinkiac-7/flightlog-api (auth)
Rails server output:
Started GET "/examples" for ::1 at 2020-03-15 08:57:51 -0400
Processing by ExamplesController#index as */*
Filter chain halted as :authenticate_request! rendered or redirected
Completed 403 Forbidden in 482ms (Views: 0.2ms | ActiveRecord: 0.0ms)
Curl command response:
{"errors":["Insufficient scope"]}~/wdi/frinkiac-7/flightlog-api (auth)
In the spirit of full disclosure, I’ve read a lot of the documentation but I’d be lying if I said I understood it to the extent that I should have. As such, my apologies in advance if the answer is available elsewhere.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Rob
