Feature Request: Coroutines Support

[pjkarels]

I get the exception NetworkOnMainThreadException when attempting to call AuthenticationClient.authenticate() when using Kotlin Coroutines. Are there plans to support coroutines?

You may be mistaking SDKs.

https://github.com/okta/okta-auth-java/blob/master/api/src/main/java/com/okta/authn/sdk/client/AuthenticationClient.java

AuthenticationClient is part of okta-auth-java.

That being said, the calls are meant to happen on a background thread. Are you sure you're switching threads? Could you try something like this?

val scope = CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.IO)
scope.launch {
        authenticationClient.authenticate(...)
}

@JayNewstrom, thank you - I was leaving out the Dispatcher.IO arg. Adding it makes it work nicely.
