  • Authorization prompts for vscode.dev do not work in web apps

  • BugsDesktopDone

vscode.dev is already logged into github, so the web app should recognize the cookies (i guess) or the sign in popup should go to github and let us sign in, but it goes to orion but not received back by vscode web app ( this is expected considering the behaviour of web apps but there should be a fix)

Orion, OS version; hardware type:
Version 0.99.124.1-beta (WebKit 616.1.10)
MacBook Air (macOS Ventura 13.3.1 (a) build 22E772610a)

    Vlad That's what my beginner brain on web dev suggests me, but I don't know for sure, there maybe some nifty things vscode.dev might do under the hood. Anyway 🙂 Thanks for the reply and the tag

      Vlad I'm sorry I guess it won't work for vscode.dev.
      The issue is still these in the latest orion. This time when selecting an option to sign in, current Orion browser window is highlighted but no sign of any links or stuff. It should be noted that in Orion the vscode.dev is fully signed in and setup.

        Vlad Yup Sorry, I was considering that but forgot it for some reason.
        There is some extension loading time in the middle feel free to skip it.

          thuvasooriya can you please share current website settings for vscode.dev? Because when I am trying to reproduce this I am getting this popup and as I click on open it opens github as popup window and all works.

            dino Yeah Sure, Thanks for the reply!

            Is this the one you are asking, or is there any other website settings.

            Ah found the issue (kind of got the hint from browser interrupted the opening of a new tab message in your screenshot 🙂 ). For some reason allowing the popup windows is causing the bug. I changed it to Block and restarted the app and viola! It works as you say. But this is not the supposed behavior right? or is it 🙂

            Now I got the same message as @dino received and successfully logged in ✨
