React

is a declarative, component-based JavaScript library for building user interfaces. Integrate authentication to your React application easily by using the

zitadel-react

SDK.

Resources​

React SDK​

The zitadel-react SDK is a wrapper around the oidc-client-ts and abstracts the handling of specific configurations for ZITADEL.

The following features are covered by the SDK:

  • Authenticate your user with ZITADEL using OIDC
  • Requesting ZITADEL userinfo endpoint to get user data
  • Refresh Token
  • Requesting User Roles from userinfo
  • Check if user has specified role
  • Logout

The goal is to extend the SDK over the time with the following features:

  • Integrate ZITADEL APIs to read and manage resources
  • Build your own login UI using our Session API

Example Application​

The zitadel-react repository also includes an Example Application ready to start and show how a React application looks like with integrated ZITADEL Login.

What does the Example include:

  • Home Page with Login Button
  • Authenticating user with OIDC PKCE Flow
  • Public Page: Accessible without authentication
  • Private Page: Shows user information of authenticated user, only accessible after login
  • Administrator Page: Only accessible after login and with specific administrator role for the application
  • Logout

Step-By-Step Guide​

After completing the Step-By-Step Guide you will have:

  1. Example Web Application with integrated ZITADEL Login
  2. Example page accessible by authenticated user showing retrieved user information
  3. Example administrator page accessible by user with administrator role
