Scopes not accessible in ACUL consent screen

Heya,

We’re currently running a proof of concept for a Custom Universal Login (ACUL) implementation and are using the consent screen as part of our initial testing.

During testing, we noticed that the scope descriptions defined for our API do not appear on the ACUL consent screen.

According to the documentation ( consent | @auth0/auth0-acul-react - v1.0.0 ), we inspected each relevant hook for the consent flow, but only the scope names are being returned - the scope descriptions are either empty or missing.

We also enabled the following tenant flag setting without success:

"use_scope_descriptions_for_consent": true

This flag correctly surfaces the descriptions in the classic Universal Login consent screen, but not in the ACUL version.

Could you please advise whether this is an expected limitation, a configuration issue, or a potential bug?

Any guidance on how to access or display the scope descriptions on the ACUL consent screen would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much for your help!

Hi @daniel.bozinovski

The scope descriptions should be available when using ACUL. You can check out our documentation regarding customizing the consent screens.

For the screen customization, you should have an interface which includes the scope name and description:

interface Scope {
    description?: string;
    value: string;
}

Let me know if you have any other questions or issues on the matter.

Kind Regards,
Nik
