Hi @simon,  
I think I really need some help on the 404 response from my POC explore of this SSO feature. I 've been working on this issue for a whole day, but still can’t figure out the problem is. I was able to

1. enabled discourse\_connect
2. set the discourse\_connect\_url to https:/ /localhost:4200/login
3. discourse-connect secret: 20’s (1) 1111111111111111111 to keep it simple

then in my login page of my angular app I sent this request by following code:

 ![This image displays a snippet of JavaScript code that performs an API request to create a new user record on Neuralink.com with specific details and authentication setup. (Captioned by AI)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/c/0/9/c09ead1eed1b14a9d3cd4dea421bf190a873cdb0.png)  
but I got the response 404 not found.

for my understanding, while sending POST request to admin/users/sync\_sso endpoint, if the user was not exist in discourse then it should create a new user based on the user\_id and email, then the returned result should be a user object shoudn’t be an empty object with status code 404.  
I also checked the log it didn’t provide any related information for this failed response.

thanks ahead!
