I have been working on a oauth2 flow for spotify by following this similar tutorial by the Firebase team for Instagram HERE
I am able to submit my credentials and return the user code and state in the url, but when I run the method to submit the code to return an auth token, the auth token that I print to console in the Firebase functions returns: Auth Token Error Not Found
. Here's my workflow:
Here's the Spotify docs
FIRST, I have a function to configure my spotifyOAuth:
function spotifyOAuth2Client() {
// Spotify OAuth 2 setup
const credentials = {
client: {
id: functions.config().spotify.clientid,
secret: functions.config().spotify.clientsecret,
},
auth: {
tokenHost: 'https://accounts.spotify.com',
authorizePath: '/authorize'
},
};
return require('simple-oauth2').create(credentials);
}
I use that function in this Firebase function that is called using https://us-central1-<my project string>.cloudfunctions.net/redirect
:
exports.redirect = functions.https.onRequest((req, res) => {
const oauth2 = spotifyOAuth2Client();
cookieParser()(req, res, () => {
const state = req.cookies.state || crypto.randomBytes(20).toString('hex');
console.log('Setting verification state:', state);
res.cookie('state', state.toString(), {
maxAge: 3600000,
secure: true,
httpOnly: true,
});
const redirectUri = oauth2.authorizationCode.authorizeURL({
redirect_uri: OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI,
//scope: OAUTH_SCOPES,
state: state,
});
console.log('Redirecting to:', redirectUri);
res.redirect(redirectUri);
});
});
The code above returns a url string with the proper parameters, the following code block is where my code breaks, I have another cloud function that runs after being redirected from the res.redirect(redirectUri)
above. And when I try to run the getToken()
method, it appears to not return anything because I hit the catch block instead? This is where I observe the Auth Token Error Not Found
.
const oauth2 = spotifyOAuth2Client();
try {
return cookieParser()(req, res, async () => {
console.log('Received verification state:', req.cookies.state);
console.log('Received state:', req.query.state);
if (!req.cookies.state) {
throw new Error('State cookie not set or expired. Maybe you took too long to authorize. Please try again.');
} else if (req.cookies.state !== req.query.state) {
throw new Error('State validation failed');
}
console.log('Received auth code:', req.query.code);
console.log(OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI);
// Get the access token object (the authorization code is given from the previous step).
const tokenConfig = {
code: req.query.code,
redirect_uri: 'http://localhost:8100/popup'
};
// Save the access token
try {
const result = await oauth2.authorizationCode.getToken(tokenConfig)
const accessToken = oauth2.accessToken.create(result);
console.log('inside try');
console.log(result);
console.log(accessToken);
} catch (error) {
console.log('Access Token Error', error.message);
}
I've double checked my spotify client/secret credentials in the config, what is going wrong with this OAuth2 flow?
Resolved my issue, I was not using the correct endpoints:
