Example for auth0-react about cypress-spa-example HOT 2 CLOSED

Hey @dillonco - using auth0-react shouldn't make a difference since it's using spa js under the hood

we couldn't get the isAuthenticated to ever return True.

This is usually a mismatch between what you're saving to localStorage in your Cypress code (which should look something like https://github.com/adamjmcgrath/cypress-spa-example/blob/master/cypress/integration/example.spec.js#L33) and what auth0-react (via spa js) is looking for in localStorage when it checks if you're authenticated.

To debug, put something like this at the top of your page

<script>
    var __getItem = localStorage.getItem.bind(localStorage);
    localStorage.getItem = function (key) {
      console.log('looking for', key, 'in', Object.keys(localStorage));
      return __getItem(key);
    };
  </script>

This should log something like this to your console:

looking for @@auth0spajs@@::xyzabc::default::openid profile email in ["@@auth0spajs@@::xyzabc::default::openid profile email", "ally-supports-cache"]

The cache key format is @@auth0spajs@@::CLIENT_ID::AUDIENCE::SCOPE, if the key your looking for doesn't quite match the one in the list - you'll need to update the CLIENT_ID, AUDIENCE or SCOPE in your Cypress code or where you've invoked <Auth0Provider>

If the list doesn't have anything like that in it, you haven't logged in succesfully.

If the console doesn't log anything, check you're using cacheLocation="localstorage" in your Auth0Provider (you need to do this at least under test)

That's exactly what I needed to know, thank you!
