How to set loginHint ?

[duymap]

I tried to set loginHint as below code but it does not work:

AuthenticationPayload payload = new AuthenticationPayload.Builder().setLoginHint().build();

    mOktaAuth.login(
            this,
            PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, completionIntent, 0),
            PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, cancelIntent, 0), payload
    );

Looking code deeply found weird code in OktaAutheApp.createAuthRequest:

        if (payload != null) {
            authRequestBuilder.setAdditionalParameters(payload.getAdditionalParameters());
            if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(payload.toString())) {
                authRequestBuilder.setState(payload.getState());
            }

            if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(payload.getLoginHint())) {
                authRequestBuilder.setLoginHint(payload.getLoginHint());
            }
        }

        this.mAuthRequest.set(authRequestBuilder.build());```

Why code checking payload.toString() and setState ? Why this is not !TextUtils.isEmpty(payload.getState())

You have to set the state also.

        AuthenticationPayload payload = new AuthenticationPayload.Builder()
                .setLoginHint("yourHint")
                .setState("yourState")
                .build();

The SDK tries to use the state and the hint if a payload is passed in.

I don't know 😒
