Auth0/React getProfile not returning user information

I am trying to retrieve a user's profile information using this tutorial here: https://auth0.com/docs/quickstart/spa/react/02-user-profile

My scope looks like this:

auth0 = new auth0.WebAuth({
 // ...
 scope: 'openid profile'
});

Here are the two functions inside my Auth file.

  getAccessToken() {
    const accessToken = localStorage.getItem('access_token');
    if (!accessToken) {
      throw new Error('No Access Token Found');
    }

    return accessToken;
  }

  getProfile() {
    let accessToken = this.getAccessToken();
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      this.auth0.client.userInfo(accessToken, (err, profile) => {
        console.log(profile);
        if (profile) {
          resolve(profile);
        } else if (err) {
          reject(err);
        }
      });
    });
  }

When I console log the profile I get this instead of the user's info.

{sub: "auth0|5aba531bbf06807d56cdb6c5"}

This worked for me:

Change the scope in auth0 object to include profile: 

scope: 'openid profile email'

Set an empty user profile object 

  userProfile = {}

Then set the profile to the response from auth0. 

  getAccessToken() {
    if (localStorage.getItem('access_token')) {
      const accessToken = localStorage.getItem('access_token')
      return accessToken
    }
    else {
      console.log("No accessToken")
      return null
    }
   }

  getProfile() {
    let accessToken = this.getAccessToken();
    if(accessToken) {
      this.auth0.client.userInfo(accessToken, (err, profile) => {
        if (profile) {
          this.userProfile = { profile };
          console.log(this.userProfile)
         }
       });
     }
   }

It seems that it is just returning the fields for the scope openid. Where did you specify the scope?
