Avoid browser popup blockers

Question

I\'m developing an OAuth authentication flow purely in JavaScript and I want to show the user the \"grant access\" window in a popup, but it gets blocked.

How can I

Answer 1

I didn't want to make the new page unless the callback returned successfully, so I did this to simulate the user click:

function submitAndRedirect {
  apiCall.then(({ redirect }) => {
      const a = document.createElement('a');
      a.href = redirect;
      a.target = '_blank';
      document.body.appendChild(a);
      a.click();
      document.body.removeChild(a);
  });
}
