Infinite Redirect - NextJS

Hey, I am having an issue when my DB is reset during development that I am not ever able to clear the now invalid cookies. Obviously this in general should never be an issue but if it does happen then the only way for a end user to recover is by manually deleting their cookies which is unreasonable. (This could happen in production if a user clears all their sessions for example.) In my middleware I am using getSessionCookie(), which for this situation will return true. Then in my server component I am calling, await auth.api.getSession({...

Solution:

The issue seemed to be with trying to redirect in the page rather than letting my middleware handle that, I am guessing the redirect hijacked the response from the auth call which would have caused the clearing of cookies.

Confused on adding custom roles

Hello! Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere. I've searched through these forums and haven't found a thing, though. I have, in fact, read the docs! Also searched on Google, didn't find a thing. I'm using Next.js, React, better-auth, a few other plugins, all latest version. I'm trying to give someone, say, the "Member" role, or "Admin" (capitalized A). However, when I try to do this (clientside, on a webpage): ...

OIDC Plugin + Organization Plugin for limiting user OAuth to specific organizations tied to an app

I may have missed this in the documentation, but is there a way for me to combine the OIDC plugin with the Organizations plugin such that when a user tries to authenticate into a specific application, we check that user's membership with an associated organization during the OAuth process, and if the user doesn't have a membership, then authentication into that app should be denied. Basically, I am making an auth-gateway system to where my team can internally tie different applications (and OAuth configs) to different end customers (better-auth organizations plugin) via an administration portal. My team will deploy a client-application that users log into by OIDC, pointed to the auth-gateway application we have setup (both NextJS apps will use better-auth, with auth-gateway being the source of truth and client-application pointing to our auth-gateway with it's configured credentials. In other plugins, I see the ability to add custom fields and callbacks/validators on the actions, but from what I can tell, I can't do that for the OIDC provider plugin....
