If I only have 1 provider, is there a way to just go directly to that provider's authorization flow?

Yea. You can do that (i assume that you are using thirdparty recipe):
Disable the default UI for the sign in / up screen:
```
ThirdParty.init({
    signInAndUpFeature: {
        disableDefaultUI: true,
        providers: [...]
    }
})
```
The above will disable the UI shown on /auth route.

Then make your own component that's shown on /auth route, and do something like:
```
function AuthComponent(props: any) {
    useEffect(() => {
        Session.doesSessionExist().then(sessionExists => {
            if (sessionExists) {
                // TODO: redirect to dashboard or wherever
            } else {
                ThirdParty.redirectToThirdPartyLogin({
                    thirdPartyId: "google"
                });
            }
        })
    }, []);

    return null;
}
```

<@498057949541826571> thanks for the help! When I added AuthComponent as the element of the Route component I got an error saying "ThirdParty.redirectToThirdPartyLogin" is not a function.

Would you be able to update this codesandbox to show how to implement it?
https://codesandbox.io/s/hopeful-meadow-8zvh1e?file=/src/App.js

which version of the auth-react SDK are you using?

ah right. The version you are using is quite old. It doesn't have that function

if you do not want to upgrade to the latest version of the auth-react SDK, instead of using `ThirdParty.redirectToThirdPartyLogin`, you can fetch the redirect URL from the backend and manually redirect the user to that URL.

Here is an explanation of which API to query on the backend to get the URL: https://supertokens.com/blog/adding-social-login-to-your-website-with-supertokens

thanks, I just upgraded to auth-react 0.22.4
I'm seeing a failed to fetch error on recipeImplementation.js file now. Thoughts on this? I google searched it but nothing came up

Perhaps <@292333473786494976> can help here.

<@292333473786494976> the codesandbox link is above.

<@730595602899140709> So theres a couple issues I can spot right off the bat. When initialising SuperTokens you are using `try.supertokens.io` as the apiDomain which is incorrect, the way SuperTokens works is that you have a frontend, backend (both using SuperTokens SDKs) and a SuperTokens core (You can see the full architecture here: https://supertokens.com/docs/thirdparty/architecture). `try.supertokens.io` is a SuperTokens core that we host for demo purposes.

Once you have the right architecture set up, your code example should work fine. Another thing to keep in mind is that codesandbox can change the URL for your frontend app (For example for me it would use `https://ebse6e.csb.app/` after a couple refreshes) which means you would need to update the values you pass when you call SuperTokens.init
