Upon logging in requireAuth() redirects me back to auth0

Hey, the route “/dashboard” Should only be accessed by authorised users however when i attempt to log on nothing happens and it takes me right back to the login page.

const express = require('express');
const { auth, requiresAuth } = require('express-openid-connect');
const path = require('path');


const app = express();


const config = {
  authRequired: false,
  auth0Logout: true,
  baseURL: 'http://localhost:3000',
  clientID: // hidden
  issuerBaseURL: // hidden
  secret: // hidden
};

app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'views'));
app.set('view engine', 'pug');
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, '..', 'public')));

app.use(auth(config)); // Initialize the express-openid-connect middleware

app.use((req, res, next) => {
  res.locals.user = req.oidc?.user; // Use optional chaining to avoid the error
  next();
});

// Serve static files under '/FrontEnd' with authentication
app.use('/FrontEnd', express.static(path.join(__dirname, '../../FrontEnd')));

// Define routes
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, '../../FrontEnd/html/index.html'));
});

app.get('/dashboard', requiresAuth(), function (req, res, next) {
  res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, '../../FrontEnd/html/home.html'), {
    userProfile: JSON.stringify(req.oidc?.user, null, 2),
    title: 'Profile page'
  });
}); // auth unfunctional not sending user to secure route due to inauth?

const port = 3000;
app.listen(port, () => {
  console.log(`Server running at http://localhost:${port}/`);
});
