# Device authorization page

`GET /auth/device`

Better Auth serves this as JSON. A top-level browser navigation is redirected to the web app's device screen instead, so opening the URL by hand shows a page rather than a JSON blob.

## Query parameters

- `user_code` string — The device authorization user code.
- `ui` '1' — Force a redirect to the web UI, for clients that do not send Sec-Fetch-* headers.

## Response `200`

Device authorization payload from Better Auth

## Other responses

- `302` — Redirects the browser to the web app device screen
