Okta-signin-widget and token manager (sessionStorage)

Questions
1

Hi,

I am using okta-signin-widget in my angular app. I want to configure the inner OktaAuth to write the token into the session storage instead fo local storage.

I know OktaAuth has this config but I couldn’t find away to change in okta-signin-widget

var config = {
url: ‘https://{yourOktaDomain}’,
tokenManager: {
storage: ‘sessionStorage’
}
};

var authClient = new OktaAuth(config);

How can I change the tokenManager config from okta-signin-widget ?

have you tried this to provide the config for okta-auth-js? https://github.com/okta/okta-signin-widget#configuration

authParams: {
    // Configuration for authClient. See https://github.com/okta/okta-auth-js#configuration-options
  }

Has anyone been able to get the tokens saved to sessionStorage while using the Sign-in widget?
I have tried configuring it in the authClient and using that for the widget but that has not worked either.
Anyone got any suggestions?

as phi1ipp mentioned above, you need to pass in any additional configs for authClient within the authParams property of the widget config. E.g

authParams: {
  tokenManager: {
    storage: 'sessionStorage' 
  }
}
