Hi. I’m trying to accomplish the following:

- user navigates to url /abc
- user clicks a button on page /abc
- user gets logged out and is prompted to login
- once logged in, user is redirected to another page /xyz

I’m doing:

```auto
const auth0 = useAuth0()
<btn
            onClick={ () => {
              auth0.logout();
              auth0.loginWithRedirect({ 
               {redirect_uri: '/xyz'})
          >
            Login to another account
          </btn>

```

However the logout is getting cancelled by the loginWithRedirect call. Without loginWithRedirect the logout works just fine. How can I fix this?

Hi @marid,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

I understand that you have issues with calling both the `logout()` and `loginWithRedirect()` functions.

From what I understand, this sounds like forcing re-authentication. In this case, you could call the `loginWithRedirect()` function with the `prompt=login` parameter.

This should force reauthentication as described in our [Force Reauthentication in OIDC](https://auth0.com/docs/authenticate/login/max-age-reauthentication) documentation.

I hope this helps!

Please let me know how this works for you.

Thanks,  
Rueben

thank you rueben, but if I understand it correctly, `loginWithRedirect` with a `prompt=login` won’t end the user session. What I want is to first end the current user session (aka logout) and after that automatically redirect them to login and, once they log in, automatically redirect to the `/xyz` url . How can I do that?

'Update: ok I got it working, just not sure how to validate the reauthentication using auth\_time…
