Solutions

1. Set the audience in your auth provider configuration (e.g. CREWAI_AUTH_AUDIENCE or the provider config 'audience' field).
2. Verify the audience value matches the API identifier registered in Auth0.

When it happens

Trigger: Thrown at lib/crewai-core/src/crewai_core/auth/providers/auth0.py:25 when the library encounters an invalid state.

Common situations: Occurs when the Auth0 provider configuration is missing the audience value. Set the audience in the configuration (or AUTH0_AUDIENCE environment variable) before initializing the provider.
