OAuth2 Provider Not Configured - Missing Client ID
Your OAuth2 provider (Google, GitHub, Facebook) authentication fails immediately with cryptic errors. The login redirect works but authorization fails.
Common signs: blank page on OAuth callback, 'client_id not found' in browser console, or authentication loops indefinitely.
Error Messages You Might See
Error: client_id is undefined
AuthenticationError: OAuth provider returned invalid_request
401 Unauthorized: Missing authentication credentials
Common Causes
- Environment variable for OAuth client ID is undefined or mistyped
- Redirect URI registered with provider doesn't match application URI
- OAuth credentials copied incorrectly from provider dashboard
- Mixed up client ID and client secret values
- Development vs production configuration mismatch
How to Fix It
Verify environment variables are loaded: console.log(process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID)
Check OAuth provider dashboard (Google Cloud Console, GitHub Settings) - ensure 'Authorized redirect URIs' includes your Bolt app URL.
Validate the redirect URI format matches exactly: https://your-app.bolt.new/api/auth/callback

15+ years shipping production infrastructure for startups. Former CTO at qed.builders (acquired by The Sandbox).
Cursor ambassador and agentic tooling builder.
I've scaled systems, automated deployments, and built observability tools for AI coding workflows. I specialize in taking vibe-coded apps from broken prototype to production-ready: fixing Supabase auth/RLS, Stripe integrations, deployment pipelines, and cleaning up AI-generated spaghetti.
I build tools in this space (agentprobe, claudebin, micode) and understand both sides: how AI generates code and why it breaks.

Get HelpFrequently Asked Questions
Where do I find OAuth credentials?
Visit your OAuth provider's developer dashboard. For Google: console.cloud.google.com. For GitHub: github.com/settings/developers
What's the correct redirect URI format?
Use https://your-app-name.bolt.new/api/auth/callback for Bolt deployments
Can I test OAuth locally?
Yes, but use localhost:3000/api/auth/callback in your provider settings, then switch to production URI before deploying
