📄 Description
Description
This PR enables follow_redirects=True in the OAuth client configuration.
Some OAuth providers return HTTP 302 redirect responses during token exchange or user info retrieval. By default, these redirects are not followed, which can cause OAuth authentication to fail.
This change ensures that redirect responses are handled correctly, improving compatibility with providers that rely on redirects.
Fixed
Enable redirect handling for OAuth client by adding follow_redirects=True to client_kwargs
Additional Information
This change is based on analysis of OAuthClientManager in the backend
The issue could not be consistently reproduced using standard providers like GitHub, but aligns with the reported behavior in redirect-based OAuth providers
No breaking changes expected
Open to feedback if this approach aligns with project expectations.
