Description
When using the expo sdk and the signIn hook, the properties like supportedFirstFactors are always empty. This is needed so I can build by custom login screen similar to the web without hard coding the supported SSO providers.
Steps to reproduce:
-
Add the hook
const { signIn } = useSignIn(); -
Step 2
console.log('signIn supported', signIn?.supportedFirstFactors);
Expected behavior:
Should see a list of supported first factors similar to web, where I can run this in the console on the portal page:
Clerk.client.signIn.supportedFirstFactors
Actual behavior:
[]
As a work around I also tried to reload the resource:
useEffect(() => {
console.log('signIn supported', signIn?.supportedFirstFactors);
if (signIn?.supportedFirstFactors?.length === 0) {
void signIn.reload({});
}
}, [signIn?.supportedFirstFactors]);
this results in a GET request (not POST) and fails with status 405.
It seems like it should work similar to the web but I attempted to call this myself since it works with curl but ran afoul of some kind of browser check and can only get 401 responses for some reason.
