Error message

OAuth dynamic client registration failed

What it means

Dynamic client registration failure: the registration endpoint returned non-2xx or an invalid document, so no OAuth client could be created for this app on the fly. The provider rejecting the registration request is at fault.

  /**
   * Remove an app: a credential-revoking teardown, not a status flip (PAP-17119).
   *
   * Order is the security property. Every database-side access path closes
   * first — grants, installs, the app-managed profile, gateway tokens minted
   * against it, outstanding OAuth state, the catalog, and the connection itself
   * — so the app is already undispatchable before the first call out to a secret
   * provider. Secret revocation runs last, and each secret's ref survives until
   * that secret is gone, so a provider that errors leaves the operation failed
   * closed and resumable: the credential is already unresolvable (its row is
   * marked deleted first), and retrying the same removal finishes the job.
   *
   * What stays behind is deliberate: the connection and application rows, their
   * ids, names and activity keep working so a later reconnect reuses the same
   * identity — but with no credential, no install and no profile, so
   * reconnecting has to ask for fresh authentication and rebuild access.

Solutions

1. Dynamic client registration failed at the provider. Confirm the provider supports DCR and that the registration request (redirect URIs, scopes) is valid, or pre-register a client and configure its credentials.
