Description

iOS 13.6
XCode 11.6
AppAuth-iOS version current master branch

The authentication process is done successfully, however sign-in alert is only showed the first time. If user cancels dialog and you try to make a request again (OIDAuthorizationRequest), it throws "Error of org.openid.appauth.general -3". is there any way to show sign-in alert again?. Same situation when logging is successfully and you reset the app.

Thanks in advance.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the flow on iOS 13.6 with the current master branch: cancel the ASWebAuthenticationSession sign-in alert, retry an OIDAuthorizationRequest, and repeat after successful authentication and an app reset. Trace the resulting org.openid.appauth.general -3 error and determine what is required for the sign-in alert to appear again.
