### Configure Callback URLs

A callback URL is a URL in your application where Auth0 redirects the user after they have authenticated. The callback URL for your app must be added to the **Allowed Callback URLs** field in your [Application Settings](${manage_url}/#/applications). If this field is not set, users will be unable to log in to the application and will get an error.

A logout URL is a URL in your application that Auth0 can return to after the user has been logged out of the authorization server. This is specified in the `returnTo` query parameter.

The Back-Channel Login endpoint enables applications to send an authentication request to a user’s phone, or the authentication device, provided they have an app installed and are enrolled for [push notifications using the Guardian SDK](/secure/multi-factor-authentication/auth0-guardian#enroll-in-push-notifications).
215
+
216
+
Use the Back-Channel Login endpoint to authenticate users for the following use cases:
217
+
218
+
- Users are not in front of the application that requires authentication, such as when they're telephoning a call center.
219
+
- The consumption device, or the device that helps the user consume a service, is insecure for sensitive operations e.g. web browser for financial transactions.
220
+
- The consumption device has limited interactive capability e.g. e-bicycles or e-scooters.
|`client_id` <br/><spanclass="label label-danger">Required</span> | Client ID of your application. |
245
+
|`binding_message` <br/><spanclass="label label-danger">Required</span> | Human-readable string displayed on both the device calling `/bc-authorize` and the user’s authentication device (e.g. phone) to ensure the user is approves the correct request. For example: `ABC-123-XYZ`. |
246
+
|`login_hint` <br/><spanclass="label label-danger">Required</span> | String containing information about the user to contact for authentication. It uses the [IETF9493 standard for Subject Identifiers for Security Event Tokens](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9493). Auth0 only supports the [Issuer and Identifier format](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9493#name-issuer-and-subject-identifi). For an example login hint, review the [Remarks](#remarks). |
247
+
|`scope` <br/><spanclass="label label-danger">Required</span> | Space-separated list of OIDC and custom API scopes. For example: `openid read:timesheets edit:timesheets`. Include `offline_access` to get a refresh token. At a minimum, you must include the scope `openid`. |
248
+
|`audience` <br/><spanclass="label label-primary">Optional</span> | Unique identifier of the audience for an issued token. If you require an access token for an API, pass the unique identifier of the target API you want to access. |
249
+
|`request_expiry` <br/><spanclass="label label-primary">Optional</span> | To configure a custom expiry time in seconds for this request, pass a number between 1 and 300. If not provided, expiry defaults to 300 seconds. |
250
+
251
+
### Response Body
252
+
253
+
If the request is successful, you should receive a response like the following:
254
+
255
+
```http
256
+
{
257
+
"auth_req_id": "eyJh...",
258
+
"expires_in": 300,
259
+
"interval": 5
260
+
}
261
+
```
262
+
263
+
The `auth_req_id` value should be kept as it is used later in the flow to identify the authentication request.
264
+
265
+
The `expires_in` value tells you how many seconds you have until the authentication request expires.
266
+
267
+
The `interval` value tells you how many seconds you must wait between poll requests.
268
+
269
+
The request should be approved or rejected on the user’s authentication device using the Guardian SDK.
270
+
271
+
### Remarks
272
+
273
+
The following code sample is an example login hint:
274
+
275
+
```http
276
+
{
277
+
"format": "iss_sub",
278
+
"iss": "https://[TENANT_DOMAIN]/",
279
+
"sub": "auth0|[USER ID]"
280
+
}
281
+
```
282
+
283
+
White space is not significant. Replace the `[TENANT_DOMAIN]` with your tenant domain or custom domain. Replace the `[USER ID]` with a valid `user_id` for the authorizing user returned from the [User Search APIs](https://auth0.com/docs/manage-users/user-search).
284
+
285
+
Include an optional parameter for application authentication in the request:
286
+
287
+
- Client Secret with HTTP Basic auth, in which case no parameters are required. The `client_id` and `client_secret` are passed in a header.
288
+
- Client Secret Post, in which case the `client_id` and `client_secret` are required.
289
+
- Private Key JWT, where the `client_id`, `client_assertion` and `client_assertion` type are required.
290
+
- mTLS, where the `client_id` parameter is required and the `client-certificate` and `client-certificate-ca-verified` headers are required.
To check on the status of a Back-Channel Login flow, poll the `/oauth/token` endpoint at regular intervals by passing the following:
309
+
310
+
-`auth_req_id` returned from the call to `/bc-authorize`
311
+
-`urn:openid:params:grant-type:ciba` grant type
312
+
313
+
### Request Parameters
314
+
315
+
| Parameter | Description |
316
+
|:-----------------|:------------|
317
+
|`client_id` <br/><spanclass="label label-danger">Required</span> | Client ID of your application |
318
+
|`auth_req_id` <br/><spanclass="label label-danger">Required</span> | Used to reference the authentication request. Returned from the call to `/bc-authorize`|
319
+
|`grant_type` <br/><spanclass="label label-danger">Required</span> | Must be set to `urn:openid:params:grant-type:ciba`|
320
+
321
+
### Response Body
322
+
323
+
If the authorizing user has not yet approved or rejected the request, you should receive a response like the following:
324
+
325
+
```http
326
+
{
327
+
"error": "authorization_pending",
328
+
"error_description": "The end-user authorization is pending"
329
+
}
330
+
```
331
+
332
+
If the authorizing user rejects the request, you should receive a response like the following:
333
+
334
+
```http
335
+
{
336
+
"error": "access_denied",
337
+
"error_description": "The end-user denied the authorization request or it
338
+
has been expired"
339
+
}
340
+
```
341
+
342
+
If you are polling too quickly (faster than the interval value returned from `/bc-authorize`), you should receive a response like the following:
343
+
344
+
```http
345
+
{
346
+
"error": "slow_down",
347
+
"error_description": "You are polling faster than allowed. Try again in 10 seconds."
348
+
}
349
+
```
350
+
351
+
In addition, Auth0 will add the the [Retry-After](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Retry-After) header to the response indicating how many seconds to wait before attempting to poll again. If you consistently poll too frequently, the number of seconds you must wait increases.
352
+
353
+
If the authorizing user has approved the push notification, the call returns the ID token and access token (and potentially a refresh token):
354
+
355
+
```http
356
+
{
357
+
"access_token": "eyJh...",
358
+
"id_token": "eyJh...",
359
+
"expires_in": 86400,
360
+
"scope": "openid"
361
+
}
362
+
```
363
+
364
+
Once you have exchanged an `auth_req_id` for an ID or access token, it is no longer usable.
365
+
366
+
### Remarks
367
+
368
+
Include an optional parameter for application authentication in the request:
369
+
370
+
- Client Secret with HTTP Basic auth, in which case no parameters are required. The `client_id` and `client_secret` are passed in a header.
371
+
- Client Secret Post, in which case the `client_id` and `client_secret` are required.
372
+
- Private Key JWT, where the `client_id`, `client_assertion` and `client_assertion` type are required.
373
+
- mTLS, where the `client_id` parameter is required and the `client-certificate` and `client-certificate-ca-verified` headers are required.
