Problem
The closing of the auth popup is affected by this https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/open#same-origin_policy since the authentication is done on a different origin.
The data communication still happens, but accessing the opener raised a DOM exception.
Because of this exception, the page refresh does not happen. Thus, the user does not see the account added, and it gets confusing because the message from the authorization popup tells him that a redirection needs to happen; otherwise, he needs to contact support.
Solution
By using a
try
block, even if the code fails to close the popup, the page reload will happen, and the user will see their account added.Screenshots
