I've looked into this and I see a few problems with this;

  • There's no clear way to identify users' ID, other than getting it from the endpoint where you refresh your access token.
  • It doesn't conform to the standard OpenID specification.

Hi, @benmccann. I'm Dosu, and I'm helping the better-auth team manage their backlog and am marking this issue as stale.

Issue Summary:

  • You requested adding a Withings social login provider, referencing Withings API and similar implementations.
  • A maintainer noted challenges such as unclear user ID retrieval and Withings not following OpenID standards.
  • No further updates or progress have been made on this integration.
  • The issue remains unresolved with no workaround or solution posted.

Next Steps:

  • Please let me know if this issue is still relevant to the latest version of better-auth by commenting here.
  • If I don’t hear back within 7 days, this issue will be automatically closed.

Thanks for your understanding and contribution!
