Okta Widget Login to redirect top the specific page

[spyderdsn]

Hi, I’m using Okta custom login with widget & VueJS. I followed all the demo apps and my application successfully authenticate. The issue I’m having is, after successful login, the page gets redirected to “/implicit/callback” and then to home “/”.

Question

How do I specify after successful callback to redirect to the specific page eg “/secured” or handle this event?

In my app.vue I was trying to use Callback & Authenticated which redirects to the secured page and I can see console.log but the straight after bounce back to home?

app.vue

<template>
  <div>
    <router-view />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
  name: 'App',
  data: function() {
    return { authenticated: false }
  },
  created() {
    this.isAuthenticated()
  },
  watch: {
    // Everytime the route changes, check for auth status
    $route: 'isAuthenticated'
  },
  methods: {
    async isAuthenticated() {
      this.authenticated = await this.$auth.isAuthenticated()

      if (this.$route.name === 'callback' && this.authenticated) {

        console.log('Callback & Authenticated')
        console.log(this.$route)

        // Navigate to the projects page
        this.$router.push({
          name: 'secured'
        })
      }

    },
    async login() {
      this.$auth.loginRedirect('/')
    },
    async logout() {
      await this.$auth.logout()
      await this.isAuthenticated()
      // Navigate back to home
      this.$router.push({ path: '/' })
    }
  }
}
</script>

router.vue

import Vue from 'vue'
import Router from 'vue-router'
import AppConfig from '@/config/config'

import Home from './views/home/Home.vue'
import SignIn from './views/signin/SignIn.vue'
import Secured from './views/secured/Secured.vue'
import Auth from '@okta/okta-vue'

Vue.use(Router)
Vue.use(Auth, AppConfig.oidc)

const router = new Router({
  mode: 'history',
  routes: [{
      path: '*',
      redirect: {
        name: 'home',
      }
    },
    {
      path: '/',
      name: 'home',
      component: Home
    },
    {
      path: '/sign-in',
      name: 'sign-in',
      component: SignIn
    },
    {
      path: '/secured',
      name: 'secured',
      component: Secured,
      meta: {
        requiresAuth: true
      }
    },
    {
      path: "/implicit/callback",
      name: 'callback',
      component: Auth.handleCallback()
    }
  ]
})

// Okta Authentication Redirect

const onAuthRequired = async (from, to, next) => {

  (from.matched.some(record => record.meta.requiresAuth) && !(await Vue.prototype.$auth.isAuthenticated())) ? next({
    path: "/sign-in"
  }) : next()

}

router.beforeEach(onAuthRequired);

export default router; 

secured.vue

<template>
 <h1>Secured</h1>
</template>

<script>
import AppConfig from '@/config/config'

export default {
  name: 'Secured',
  created() {
    console.log('Secured')
  },
}
</script>

Hello,

I’m having the exact same issue, only with React.
After login or registration I want the user to redirect to a secured route, e.g /protected.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it redirects to /.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I have the same issue but with registration only. Impossible to redirect correctly to a certain route, after registration I’m redirected to the dashboard where we can manage apps.

Any help would be appreciated

component: Auth.handleCallback()

Ok I managed to find a solution after tracking down what Auth.handleCallback() actually do. In my case, I created my own callback component and used here instead of Auth.handleCallback() .

AuthRedirect.vue

<script>
export default {
  name: 'AuthRedirect',
  async beforeMount () {
    await this.$auth.handleAuthentication()
    this.$router.replace({
      name: 'secured' // or anty route you like
    })
  }
}
</script>

And now in your router.js import the component you just created and use like this:

{
      path: "/implicit/callback",
      name: 'callback',
      component: AuthRedirect
}

Happy days…
