How to use Login Widget SDK API calls

You can work with the Login Widget SDK API calls separately from the Login widget if you want to:

  • use your own widget design
  • partly implement the Login widget flow

Note
Not all API calls support this scenario.

Code initialization

To use the Login Widget SDK API calls without a widget, connect the following code to the <body> tag:

Copy
Full screen
Small screen
    <script>
    const api = new XsollaLogin.Api({
      projectId: 'someProjectId'
    });
    </script>
    

    The initialization code when using an npm-package:

    Copy
    Full screen
    Small screen
      import XsollaLogin from '@xsolla/login-sdk';
      const api = new XsollaLogin.Api({
        projectId: 'someProjectId'
      });
      

      The following parameters are passed in the initialization code:

      ParameterTypeDescription
      projectId
      stringID of your Login project from Publisher Account. Required.
      fullLocale
      stringThe interface language and a region in the <language code>_<country code> format, where:The following languages are supported: Arabic (ar_AE), Bulgarian (bg_BG), Czech (cz_CZ), English (en_XX), German (de_DE), Spanish (es_ES), French (fr_FR), Hebrew (he_IL), Italian (it_IT), Japanese (ja_JP), Korean (ko_KR), Polish (pl_PL), Portuguese (pt_BR), Romanian (ro_RO), Russian (ru_RU), Thai (th_TH), Turkish (tr_TR), Vietnamese (vi_VN), Chinese Simplified (zh_CN), Chinese Traditional (zh_TW).
      The parameter affects sorting of social networks by the frequency of use in the specified region and also affects the language used for emails sent to users.
      callbackUrl
      stringThe URL the Xsolla Login server works with if login or sign-up is successful.
      emailTemplate
      stringThe name of the project on behalf of which the emails are sent to users.
      payload
      stringAdditional data that can be passed in a code. This data is added to the user JWT after successful login.
      with_logout
      booleanWhether to revoke previous tokens during a new login. false by default.
      clientId
      stringID of the client app. Passed if the OAuth 2.0 protocol-based authentication is used in the app.
      scope
      stringAdditional info about a user account requested by the app. Passed if the OAuth 2.0 protocol-based authentication is used in the app. Possible values:
      • email — an additional request of the user email address during social login.
      • offline — an automatic update of the JWT after it expires.
      • playfab — the SessionTicket parameter is automatically passed to a JWT if the user data is stored in PlayFab.
      You can also specify your own parameters. The Xsolla Login Server does not process them but returns them to a JWT.
      state
      stringAn additional user verification to prevent CSRF attacks for example. Must be longer than 8 characters.
      redirectUrl
      stringThe URL the user is redirected to after they confirm their account, log in, or confirm password reset.
      booleanWhether to disable the confirmation of passwordless authentication by a link in the email when users log in without a password by email or phone. false by default.
      is_oauth2
      booleanWhether to use the OAuth 2.0 protocol-based authentication for users. false by default.

            Passwordless authentication

            User flow:
            1. The user enters their phone number or email address. Depending on the credentials they entered, either api.phoneGetCode or api.emailGetCode is called.
            2. The server receives the data and sends an email or SMS with the code to the user. If the disableConfirmByLink=true parameter, that disables login confirmation by the link in the email, is passed when initializing the code, the api.getConfirmCode call is used for the automatic user redirection after clicking the link.
            3. The api.phoneGetCode or api.emailGetCode call returns the operation_id parameter used to confirm the phone number or email address by the api.loginWithPhoneCode or api.loginWithEmailCode call.
            4. After the email address or phone number is successfully confirmed, the URL with the token parameter returns. It’s used in the requests for additional data about the user.
            CallDescriptionParameters
            api.phoneGetCode({ phone_number, link_url, isOauth2 });Sends a confirmation code to the phone number. The operation_id parameter used to confirm the phone number is returned in the response.
            • phone_number (string) — Phone number for passwordless authentication.
            • link_url (string) — Confirmation URL.
            • isOauth2 (boolean) — Whether to use the OAuth 2.0 protocol-based authentication for users. Required.
            Example:
            Copy

                      Additional fields requests without password

                      User flow:
                      1. After successful authentication of a user, the api.loginWithEmailCode or api.loginWithPhoneCode call returns an array of fields that you can display in an app in a separate form and additionally collect the user phone number and email address. You can also get the list of fields by executing an api.getAskFields call.
                      2. The user enters a phone number or email address. The api.ask is executed.
                      3. The server receives the data and sends a confirmation code to a phone number or email address. If the disableConfirmByLink=true parameter, that disables login confirmation by the link in the email, is passed when initializing the code, the api.getConfirmCode call is used for the automatic user redirection after clicking the link.
                      4. The api.ask call returns the operation_id parameter used to confirm the phone number or email address by the api.loginWithPhoneCode or api.loginWithEmailCode call.
                      5. The URL that is used for a redirect to an authenticated user is returned after successful data confirmation.
                      CallDescriptionParameters
                      api.getAskFields(token);Gets the list of fields for an additional request.
