IN.User.Authorize callback never fired - linkedin

Question

Since today, our application that uses the linkedin javascript SDK to authenticate users stopped working.
​
We realized that the call to https://platform.linkedin.com/in.js now redirects to https://platform.linkedin.com/xdoor/scripts/in.js.
​
Consequently, calls to IN.User.Authorize(callbackFunction) successfully opens the authentication dialog window but the callback is never fired anymore.
​
Also, in another part of our application we are using the IN.UI.Authorize.place().onWindowRemove.subscribe(callbackFunction) to track dialog closes. This feature has also stopped wording and now opens a new window with the url invalid:// and the console throws this error:
​
jSecure Error: URL should be absolute with allowed schemas, relative, a hash fragment or query string. TODO?client_id=XXXX&type=user-agent in.js:7
​
jSecure Error: URL should be absolute with allowed schemas, relative, a hash fragment or query string. invalid://?xdOrigin=https%3A%2F%2FXXX-XXX&xdChannel=XXXX&xd_origin_host=https%3A%2F%2FXXXX.XXXX in.js:7
​
jSecure Error: URL should be absolute with allowed schemas, relative, a hash fragment or query string. TODO?client_id=XXXX&type=user-agent
​
​
Do you have an idea on why this stopped working ?
EDIT: Bug reappeared as of 2019 01 28.

Answer 1

Try replacing window.IN.User.authorize with window.IN.user.authorize
window.IN.user.authorize is returning a promise and success callback is executed post login success. Its weird but working if we replace User with user
window.IN.user.authorize().then(function(data){
console.log("Logged in successfully .");
window.IN.API.Raw("/people/~:(id,first-name,last-name,formatted-name,headline,location,industry,current-share,num-connections,num-connections-capped,summary,specialties,positions,picture-url,site-standard-profile-request,api-standard-profile-request,public-profile-url,email-address)").method("GET").body().result(function (oData) {
that.props.dispatch(userCreation(linkedInProfileFormat(oData)));
});
},function(error){
alert("Linkedin failed because of harshita !");
});

Try this code. I did some changes and working fine for me. need to replace window.IN.User.authorize() TO window.IN.user.authorize()
<script type="text/javascript" src="//platform.linkedin.com/in.js">
api_key: XXXXXXXXX
authorize: true
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function liAuth(){
window.IN.user.authorize().then(function(){
getProfileData();
});
}
function setLoginBadge(profile) {
if (!profile) {
profHTML = "<p>You are not logged in</p>";
}
document.getElementById("given_name").value = profile.firstName;
document.getElementById("family_name").value = profile.lastName;
document.getElementById("email").value = profile.emailAddress;
document.getElementById("verifyOauthRequestLinkedIn").submit();
}
function onError(error) {
console.log(error);
}
function getProfileData() {
IN.API.Profile("me")
.fields(["id", "firstName", "lastName", "pictureUrl", "publicProfileUrl","email-address","headline"])
.result(function(result) {
setLoginBadge(result.values[0]);
})
.error(onError);
}
</script>
<img onclick="liAuth()" src="/images/linkedIn.png">
