getUser hangs if id is an empty string

[dncrews]

We realized we needed to add some defensive programming on our end to make sure this doesn't happen, but it's likely something you could hopefully prevent for everyone else.

What did you do?

const Client = require('@okta/okta-sdk-nodejs');

const client = new Client.Client({ orgUrl: '//', token: '//' });

client.getUser('')
  .then((response) => {
    console.info({ response });
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error({ error });
  });

Expected results

Since this is a promise, I would expect this to reject with some error. Since it is a promise, it should resolve or reject or something.

Actual results

The request happens in the background, but the promise never resolves or rejects. The script just runs and exits without ever logging anything.

Why is there a $50 bounty for this issue at bountysource, given that it's marked as closed here?

That's a question for @dncrews, I suppose

@swiftone why is that a question for me? I don't manage Okta bountysource.
