Documentation for FastAPI/Starlette for Oauth2 is incorrect/misleading/confusing? about authlib HOT 3 OPEN

I'm confused too, that's the point :-) The docs aren't clear.

That error is not shown when I add the middleware - I used to have an entirely different error, however it disappeared now and I'm not sure why, I don't think I changed anything - maybe it was related to the browser's cache.

But according to the docs, it's not necessary to use session middleware with Starlette for OAuth2, which doesn't appear to be true?

I'm a bit confused... The error is shown even when you add the middleware? By what you've shown, your code is not setting the framework cache, as it should have been done in oauth creation. Do you intend to use the cache or the session approach?

from authlib.

Yeah, I guess the docs are misleading or incomplete. You must either use the starlette session middleware or setup the cache service (which is only described in flask configuration for some reason)
