User Log out with LogoutUrl in Auth0.Android

Help

Hi There,

i’m using Auth0.Android (com.auth0.android:auth0:1.15.1) for handling user athentication in my android app. Now I have a question regarding the user log out which i handle the following way:

  1. Clear the Credentials from the CredentialsManager
  2. Clear the cookies, which will force ultimately the logout:

final Intent browserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(logoutUrl));
browserIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActivity(browserIntent);

Everything works fine so far. The only thing is, that the browser app (e. g. Chrome or Firefox) which i’m calling with Intent.ACTION_VIEW opens and stays open next to my app. Is there a way to avoid this behavior? Or do you handle the log out in a different way?

Thank you very much in advance!
Best regards

Unfortunately it seems like it’s not doable with a Browser app. Maybe with CustomTabs would work.
Check the latest release in which we added native support for logout:
