Getting started
Overview
Web SDK authentication through a cookie session set by the platform.
1 min read
In the web SDK there is no API key to configure. Authentication is a cookie session set by the platform.
How the SDK sees the session
html
<script type="module">
async function main() {
const sdk = new window.I6Sdk();
const user = await sdk.auth().requireUser();
if (!user) return;
// from here on there is an active session
}
main();
</script>requireUser() returns the user profile when a session is active. Without a
session, the SDK sends the browser to the platform login.
Sending credentials
SDK calls to the platform API use credentials: "include", so the session
cookie travels with the request.
What does not exist here
There is no API key, scope or authorization header to fill in the web SDK.
