Universal Login (lock v11) custom scope

Howdy :cowboy_hat_face: ! Thank you very much for this awesome product!

I am having troubles in setting up the Lock from the Auth0 page for retrieving user_metadata. I followed the instructions on the documentation and set the params variable. However, the Login process keeps returning access_denied.

This is the settings of my Auth0 page for the Lock

As you can see from the code above, I set the params with a specific scope of user_medata and app_metadata. I need both of them for my application.
The signup page works fine and the values get stored correctly, but the login redirect returns the following error:

{"statusCode":403,"description":"Invalid state","name":"AnomalyDetected","code":"access_denied"}

Final question: from the code above, how can I write into the app_metadata?

Thank you very much in advance :smile:

You cannot do this with an access token issued to a user. Only user_metadata are meant to be set by a user him/herself.

app_metadata requires a call to the management API, and thus an M2M approach. You’d need to setup a backend as M2M client application that calls the Auth0 Management API and handles the change requests.

Thank you for this answer! I’ll do the set of app_metadata from my backend.

On the other hand, I still have the same problem even removing the app_metadata from my scope. Any idea? I attached a screenshot to clarify a bit. The Signup works fine but not the redirect login

That seems unrelated to the scopes, I suggest to search in the forum for anomaly detection (haven’t checked all posts myself yet): Search results for 'AnomalyDetected' - Auth0 Community
