Overview
When an application has only social connections enabled the following error is observed on the login page:
error: invalid_request
description: connection not found for the client
Applies To
- Social Connections
- Login Page
Cause
This can occur when screen_hint=signup is present in the /authorize
parameters. Social connections do not allow signups, and the application only has social connections enabled, so there are no available connections for use, and this error is returned.
Solution
Remove the screen_hint parameter from /authorize
when authenticating users via an application for which there are only social connections.
