Hi,


We've just implemented Apple Sign In according to the documentation (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/signinwithapplerestapi), the login is working fine, but there is no way to get the email from the token. We tried a lot of different scopes, and while only a few seem to be valid (name, email, openid), they don't seem to change anything to the response of the token. The only field that's in there is "id_token", and the only useful field in the "id_token" is "sub", which seems to be a unqiue identifier. Is there a way to retrieve the email address?


Thanks!

To request user information in the `id_token` (assuming you are requesting via the `/auth/authorize` REST API), you'll need to include the `scope` query parameter, which supports the values—`name` and `email`. You can request one, both, or none.


Note: Use space separation and percent-encoding for multiple scopes; for example, `"scope=name%20email"`.


For additional information about preparing the authorization request, please see the following documentation—

You need to follow this following steps

iPhone Settings -> Apple Id -> Password & Security -> Apple ID logins -> {YOUR APP} > Stop using Apple ID.
