from my page: /login/index.html  
I’m using the function:  
login ( {  
oidcIssuer: “[https://login.inrupt.com](https://login.inrupt.com)”,  
redirectUrl: new URL(“/”, window.location.href).toString(),  
clientName: “Clara PHR”  
}  
As you can see, it is redirected back to the main but I also test with /login/index.html and same effect.

When the page returns from PodSpaces and the permissions are granted, I call:  
await handleIncomingRedirect();

The return redirect is to my local machine as:  
/[http://192.168.1.93:8000/?code=8b9718b1-0d9e-4e96-b3c2-5a5825217d8a&state=2de13e288f13464aabeced6044c3147a&iss=https%3A%2F%2Flogin.inrupt.com](http://192.168.1.93:8000/?code=8b9718b1-0d9e-4e96-b3c2-5a5825217d8a&state=2de13e288f13464aabeced6044c3147a&iss=https%3A%2F%2Flogin.inrupt.com)

then I call:  
session = getDefaultSession();

The session.info.isLoggedIn is always false.

I’ve reviewed this topic but it did not solve the issue:

I’ve followed this [guide](https://docs.inrupt.com/developer-tools/javascript/client-libraries/tutorial/getting-started-part2/) that Inrupt provides, and here’s my code: export function initLogin() { if (!getDefaultSession().info.isLoggedIn) { return login({ oidcIssuer: solidProviders.INRUPT, redirectUrl: propertiesSolid.redirectUriLogin }); } } export async function handleAfterLogin() { await handleIncom…

Hi @TimG , is this related to the conversation happening in [handleIncomingRedirect() w/ redirect creates endless loop - #9 by TimG](https://forum.solidproject.org/t/handleincomingredirect-w-redirect-creates-endless-loop/8623/9), or is it actually a separate issue ? In the network logs, can you see a request sent to the `/token` endpoint of [https://login.inrupt.com](https://login.inrupt.com), with a 200 response having a JSON payload that includes an `access_token`?

@zwifi Yes it is related. Sorry, I should have closed this one. I figured it out.
