# Reject OAuth 2.0 Login Request

`PUT /admin/oauth2/auth/requests/login/reject`

When an authorization code, hybrid, or implicit OAuth 2.0 Flow is initiated, Ory asks the login provider
to authenticate the subject and then tell the Ory OAuth2 Service about it.

The authentication challenge is appended to the login provider URL to which the subject's user-agent (browser) is redirected to. The login
provider uses that challenge to fetch information on the OAuth2 request and then accept or reject the requested authentication process.

This endpoint tells Ory that the subject has not authenticated and includes a reason why the authentication
was denied.

The response contains a redirect URL which the login provider should redirect the user-agent to.

## Query parameters
