| Create a route that initiates the AuthKit sign-in flow. This route is used as the **Sign-in endpoint** (also known as `initiate_login_uri`) in your WorkOS dashboard settings. |

Summary
Missing required auth parametererror during dashboard impersonationContext: #400 — dashboard impersonation fails with v3 because WorkOS redirects directly to the callback without
state. The fix is to configure a sign-in endpoint (initiate_login_uri) so impersonation routes through the app first, allowing PKCE/state to be set up normally.
