The docs on get_user_data (https://rpxnow.com/docs/get_user_data) note
that "Offline Profile Access" needs to be configured:

Obtain an up-to-date copy of a user's profile as previously returned
by an auth_info API call. To use this API call, you must enable
Offline Profile Access from your application dashboard.

But I can't find this setting anywhere. Is this still needed or are
the docs outdated?

If you select "Provider Configuration" -> "Facebook" and then scroll down, there should be a permission for "Offline Access".

I'm currently not using Facebook but e.g. Twitter, Google.

But for these providers I don't see the Offline Access permission.
Does this mean no special permission needs to be set for these
providers, or are these providers not supporting the get_user_data?

Cheers,
Marcel

Yes, some providers do not provide offline access. You can see all the documented per-provider features here:

Thanks Ivan,

But on that page I don't see any information related to Offline
Profile Access.
At least not for a couple of providers I checked (e.g. Facebook,
Twitter).

A slight mix up there, you will find this on the provider configuration pages.
