I have an React app using the auth0-react.js to request tokens; the token that is returned is invalid and doesn’t authenticate against my api but when I use the token I request manually via the Auth0 dashboard, it works:

Is there any known issue with JWT tokens and auth0-react.js and .NET API?

Hi @waju,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

It sounds to me that you may have generated an opaque access token. You can verify this by using it against the /userinfo endpoint.

In this situation, you will need to configure the audience in the Auth0Provider component to specify the audience in the auth0Provider options:

<Auth0Provider
      domain="your-auth0-domain"
      clientId="your-auth0-client-id"
      redirectUri={window.location.origin}
      audience="your-api-audience" // Specify your API's audience here>
  <MyApp />
</Auth0Provider>

From doing so, your app should generate a JWT access token when logging in.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Rueben
