• Can I remove Magic's branding?

  Magic gives developers full control over the UI and branding. Hide Magic's "check your email" modal To hide the default modal when a user triggers the email, just pass in showUI: false when initiating the magic login, like const did = await magic.auth.loginWithMagicLink({ email, showUI: false });. You can then show your own modal telling the user to click the email link sent to them. Customize the Magic Link Email In the Magic Dashboard, choosVery popular

• How are sessions handled with Magic

  There are different ways to handle sessions with Magic. You can either rely on Magic for session management, or rely on your own backend, which can offer more flexibility. Relying on Magic for session management When a user logs in, they create a new session that is valid for 7 days. Unless the user explicitly logs out, they won’t have to log in again for 7 days.

• Redirect to my site after a user clicks the magic link

  The redirect URI is supported in Magic starting with magic-sdk version 2.6.0. Pass in a redirectURI parameter to loginWithMagicLink which is where the user will get redirected to after clicking the magic link. On the redirect page, call await magic.auth.loginWithCredential(); which will grab and return the DID token from the query parameters which you canVery popular

• Can I use Magic with JWT?

  Yes! You can simply use Magic for authentication, and your own JWT implementation for authorization. Here's high-level how JWT would work with Magic: User logs in with Magic, you're returned the DID token Validate the DID token in your backend with our admin-sdk magic.token.validate(did) method Call our admin-sdk method magic.user. getMetadataByToken(did) to grab the user's unique ID and email address Store that data inside a JWT token and then move forward with your JWT implemVery popular

• Can I separate login and signup?

  Of course! Magic doesn't differentiate between a new user (signup) and a returning user (login), so the same loginWithMagicLink({ email }) code will power both pages, but you can have different forms if for example you want to prompt the user for more information that you'll be storing, such as first name, last name, etc.Popular

• Sunsetting Test API keys

  Support for testnet keys ends on February 11, 2022. From Magic SDK v7.0.0, we combined testnet API key functionality into live API keys to help simplify and make the Web3 developer experience better. What’s next? You can now use live API keys for both mainnet and testnets. When transacting on testnets, specify the testnet you want in the options.network parameter when you initialize the Magic SDK. We recommend you create separate apps for test vs. production user logins.Popular

• How to secure your API with Magic

  There are a couple of ways to secure your API using Magic: You can generate a DID token client-side using magic's getIdToken sdk method. Then send that in the authorization header to your API, where you'll call our validate(didToken) function on the token generated client-side. By default the tokens are valid for 15 minutes but you can pass in a lifespan parameter to set any expiration date you'd like. Manage your own sessions by issuing a cookie/JWT after a user completes a login.Few readers

• Does calling `logout()` invalidate a DID token?

  Calling a logout function does not invalidate a DID token. A DID token is just proof that a user was authenticated, and each DID token has an expiration of 15 minutes by default. The only way for a once-valid DID token to be invalidated is for it to expire. That's why it's best to create short-lasting DID tokens when the user is logged in and re-generate them as needed (if needed) by your application. ${color}[#8a8a8a](_(see https://magic.link/docs/introduction/decentralized-id for more inFew readers

• Can Magic store custom user data?
