Accessing appState

https://kinde.com/docs/developer-tools/react-sdk/#persisting-application-state gives an example for how to handle redirecting back to the page a user was on before they clicked the login button. However, as per https://discord.com/channels/1070212618549219328/1161828367511859291/threads/1174693165748461628 I'm currently redirecting the user to a special page which handles making an API call to map them into an organisation based on some business logic. This means I want to wait until that API call completes before I redirect back to the original URL. To enable this I'm currently using a big hack:

      onRedirectCallback={(_user, appState) => {
        if (appState?.redirectTo) {
          // TODO: This is a hack to get around the fact that we don't have access to the
          // kinde_redirect_to in a persistant way. We need to set this in index.jsx and
          // read it in AssignOrg.tsx.
          window["kinde_redirect_to"] = appState?.redirectTo;
        }
      }}

      onRedirectCallback={(_user, appState) => {
        if (appState?.redirectTo) {
          // TODO: This is a hack to get around the fact that we don't have access to the
          // kinde_redirect_to in a persistant way. We need to set this in index.jsx and
          // read it in AssignOrg.tsx.
          window["kinde_redirect_to"] = appState?.redirectTo;
        }
      }}

Is there a better way of doing this? I couldn't see anything returned from useKindeAuth() which exposed the appState.

I'll reach out to the team and let you know about this. I believe there should be some way to get the domain information before you make the login request, so you can just if/else statement into different org buckets so you can skip that middleman step altogether but I'm gonna double check on this would be done.
