'Misconfiguration in the system' error in local R Shiny app connected to Auth0 using the Auth0 library

I am trying to create a simple shiny app that is connected to the Auth0 password system using the Auth0 library. Currently, I am just trying to run locally. I get an Auth0 page that says 'there could be a misconfiguration in the system or a service outage' when I try to run, but I can't figure out why. I took the following steps:

  1. library(Auth0) in app
  2. shinyServerAuth0(...) in app
  3. created a Auth0 'regular web application' project
  4. copied the Auth0 project secret, name, and username, and set it to variables in .Renviron
  5. added the URLS 'http://localhost:8080, https://[redacted].shinyapps.io/' to the Callback, Logout, and Web Origin settings.
  6. Saved/refreshed everything.

Any thoughts?

Is this real code? I thought the package name is auth0 (lower-case "a"). There are likely many things that could go wrong, such as not correctly identifying the URL of the app to the auth0 servers. – r2evans
Thanks, you're right about it being auth0 instead of Auth0. I just typed it incorrectly in stack. – Hattie35

Update: I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. I was setting the api_url to be https://[my_name].auth0.com instead of https://[my_name].us.auth0.com. So if you use the autogenerated YML and the US url make sure to change that.
