I just set up devtools on my local project here but when I open them it sends me to login but then
it redirects because its trying to sign in via github to devtools and it just redirects, I guess its not accessing as its all local

Hi @Salvador_James. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
It seems like you're encountering an issue with logging into the devtools when running them locally. This is a known issue, and there are a few points to consider based on the information from the knowledge sources.
Known Issues and Workarounds
1. Login Issues in Safari:
- There is a known bug where logging in using devtools in Safari results in an "Invalid-session-token" error. This issue occurs regardless of whether you use GitHub or Google to log in (source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5753)).
2. Documentation and Configuration:
- The documentation for devtools might not clearly state that a standalone server is required, which can be started using the
@refinedev/cli package. If you're not using the CLI, you can manually start the devtools server by installing the @refinedev/devtools-server package and running pnpm exec refine-devtools (source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5840)).
3. Login Requirement:
- The need for a Google or GitHub login for local devtools usage has been a point of contention. The documentation should explain why the login is required, what information is collected, and what external backend is used (source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5840)).
Steps to Resolve
1. Ensure Devtools Server is Running:
Make sure you have the devtools server running. If you're not using the CLI, you can start it manually:
2. Check Browser Compatibility:
If you're using Safari, try switching to another browser like Chrome or Firefox to see if the issue persists.
3. Login Information:
Ensure that you are aware of the login requirements and the data being collected. This might help in understanding why the login is necessary and if there are any network issues causing the redirection problem.
Additional Context
- If you are running your development environment in Docker containers, note that devtools bind exclusively on localhost, which might cause issues if the client cannot reach the server. There is currently no configuration option for defining the binding IP (source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5111)).
If these steps do not resolve your issue, you might want to follow up on the specific GitHub issues or check for any updates in the documentation.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the following sources:
- Issue #5753 (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5753)
- Issue #5840 (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5840)
- Issue #5111 (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5111)

It looks like you're encountering an issue where a valid session is detected, preventing you from logging in. The error message suggests that you might need to set
?refresh=true to refresh the session.
Steps to Resolve
1. Add ?refresh=true to the URL:
When you encounter the login page, append ?refresh=true to the URL to refresh the session. This should help in bypassing the valid session detection issue.
For example:
2. Ensure Devtools Server is Running:
Make sure the devtools server is running. If you're not using the CLI, you can start it manually:
3. Check Browser Compatibility:
If you're using Safari, try switching to another browser like Chrome or Firefox to see if the issue persists. There have been known issues with Safari (source (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/issues/5753)).
