Exploring Better Auth SSO Plugin – Guidance on authClient.sso.register Usage
I’ve created a sample repository to explore the usage of the Better Auth SSO plugin.
While working on it, I was unsure about the appropriate placement and timing for calling
authClient.sso.register, especially since invoking this API requires an active user session. Additionally, there is no implementation provided for signInWithTestUser, which added to the confusion.
Documentation reference: Better Auth SSO Plugin - Register an OIDC Provider
It's worth noting that sensitive information such as clientId and clientSecret should be handled exclusively on the backend.

If anyone has a production-ready example or further guidance on implementing this correctly, I’d greatly appreciate it!Single Sign-On (SSO) | Better Auth

If you need a set of pre-defined providers checkout the generic oauth plugin instead
Ok, thanks for the clarification. It would be great if you can add the same in docs as well
