Hey @pmathew92! I'm here to help you with any bugs, questions, or contributions you have regarding Auth0.Android. Let's tackle this issue together!

To handle error scenarios when using WebAuthentication with coroutines in Auth0.Android version 2.10.2, you can utilize the await function provided in the Builder class. This function is designed to work with coroutines and will throw an AuthenticationException if an error occurs during the authentication process. Here's an example of how you can implement this:

import com.auth0.android.Auth0
import com.auth0.android.authentication.AuthenticationException
import com.auth0.android.provider.WebAuthProvider
import kotlinx.coroutines.CoroutineScope
import kotlinx.coroutines.Dispatchers
import kotlinx.coroutines.launch

fun authenticateUser(context: Context, account: Auth0) {
    CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.Main).launch {
        try {
            val credentials = WebAuthProvider.login(account)
                .withScheme("https")
                .await(context)
            // Handle successful authentication with credentials
        } catch (e: AuthenticationException) {
            // Handle authentication error
            when {
                e.isBrowserAppNotAvailable -> {
                    // Handle case where no compatible browser is available
                }
                e.isAuthenticationCanceled -> {
                    // Handle case where authentication was canceled
                }
                else -> {
                    // Handle other types of authentication errors
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

In this code, the await function is called within a coroutine, and any AuthenticationException thrown is caught in the catch block, allowing you to handle different error scenarios appropriately [1].
