TypeError: Invalid "auth" argument

[Shivansh-007]

I was writing a google oauth2 login feature for my starlette/fastapi application. But on going to /login endpoint I am getting this error:

TypeError: Invalid "auth" argument: <httpx._config.UnsetType object at 0x7fbd7bcbc8e0>

I googled and asked on the python-discord server too, got no working solutions sadly. I am not sure if this is the right place, if so please point me to the right place.

Here is my code:

As I mentioned in the discord, here is one of the possible explanation lepture/authlib#357.

Or UnsetType get removed from AuthTypes when types were moved into httpx/_types.py since the auth was able to be UnsetType in https://github.com/encode/httpx/blame/34ba0e14b0d588860e408e6e21ec729af5667f7f/httpx/_client.py#L288
