php - Sending additional parameters to callback uri in socialite package for laravel

Question

Im trying to use Socialite package for laravel and I would like to know how to pass additional parameters to callback url. It seems that OAuth allows additional params, but I haven't found any solution for laravel on how to pass them. Currently my methods look like this

    public function login($provider)
    {
        return Socialite::with($provider)->redirect();
    }


   public function callback(SocialAccountService $service, $provider)
    {
        $driver   = Socialite::driver($provider);
        $user = $service->createOrGetUser($driver, $provider);
        $this->auth()->login($user, true);
        return redirect()->intended('/');

    }

Suppose I want to get $user_role variable in my callback method. How do I pass it there?

Answer 1

You need to use state param if you want to pass some data.

Example for your provider

$provider = 'google';
return Socialite::with(['state' => $provider])->redirect();

Your callback function:

$provider = request()->input('state');
$driver = Socialite::driver($provider)->stateless();
