signup with auth0 about auth0-nextjs-samples

[adamjmcgrath]

Hi @Malith077 - nextjs-auth0 only supports using the Universal Login Page for authentication. If you want to use your own bespoke embedded system for doing auth then this SDK won't be suitable for you as we don’t expose the low level functionality for managing the session.

Auth0 recommends using the Universal Login Page over embedded but if you want to persevere with embedded, Vercel recommends iron-session for a low-level, encrypted, and stateless session utility.

Edit I just noticed that you're doing embedded for signup only (not login). In that case you should just need to log the user in via the ULP after signing them up.

Hi @adamjmcgrath So after I signup a user then I have to redirect them to complete the login. After that I'll be able to keep the user across the application?

Is there any other auth0 npm package that I could use which doesn't redirect the user to ULP after signing up? In my use case, I need to signup a user then redirect them to a "Thank you for signing up" page. However, this particular page has to have the signed up user in the navbar right away.
Appriciate some directions. Thanks.

Correct

Only our legacy SDKs do embedded auth (like auth0.js see https://github.com/auth0/auth0.js#auth0authentication)
