One Auth

Website  ·  Docs  ·  Dashboard  ·  Changelog  ·  X  ·  LinkedIn

One Auth is a pre-built, embeddable authentication UI that makes it easy for your users to securely connect their third-party accounts (Gmail, Slack, Salesforce, QuickBooks, etc.) directly within your application.

Fully compatible with popular frameworks such as React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, and more.

Install

With npm:

npm i @withone/auth

With yarn:

yarn add @withone/auth

Getting Started with the Skill

The easiest way to integrate One Auth is by installing the skill for your AI coding agent. The skill provides step-by-step guidance for setting up the backend token endpoint, frontend component, and connection handling.

npx skills add withoneai/auth

Once installed, your AI coding agent will have full context on how to set up and work with One Auth in your project.

Using the Auth component

Replace the token URL with your backend token endpoint URL.

⚠️ Must be a full URL — relative paths like /api/one-auth won't work because the Auth widget runs in an iframe on a different domain. Use the complete URL (e.g., https://your-domain.com/api/one-auth).

"use client";

import { useOneAuth } from "@withone/auth";

const USER_ID = "your-user-uuid";

export function ConnectIntegrationButton() {
  const { open } = useOneAuth({
    token: {
      url: "https://your-domain.com/api/one-auth",
      headers: {
        "x-user-id": USER_ID,
      },
    },
    onSuccess: (connection) => {
      console.log("Connection created:", connection);
    },
    onError: (error) => {
      console.error("Connection failed:", error);
    },
    onClose: () => {
      console.log("Auth modal closed");
    },
  });

  return <button onClick={open}>Connect Integration</button>;
}

Configuration Options

Option	Type	Description
token.url	string	Full URL of your backend token endpoint
token.headers	object	Headers to send with the token request (e.g., user ID)
selectedConnection	string	Pre-select an integration by display name (e.g., "Gmail")
appTheme	"dark" | "light"	Theme for the Auth modal
title	string	Custom title for the modal
imageUrl	string	Custom logo URL to display in the modal
companyName	string	Your company name to display in the modal
onSuccess	(connection) => void	Callback when a connection is successfully created
onError	(error) => void	Callback when the connection fails
onClose	() => void	Callback when the modal is closed

Backend Token Generation

To enable Auth connections, your backend needs an endpoint that generates a session token by calling the One API.

Environment Variables

ONE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_your_secret_key_here

Variable	Description
ONE_SECRET_KEY	Your secret key from the One dashboard

API Route — POST /api/one-auth

Your backend endpoint should:

1. Extract the x-user-id header to identify the user
2. Handle pagination — the Auth widget sends page and limit as query parameters
3. Call POST https://api.withone.ai/v1/authkit/token with your secret key and the user's identity
4. Return the token response to the client

Request headers:

Header	Required	Description
x-user-id	Yes	Unique identifier for the user (e.g., UUID from your auth system)

Query parameters (sent automatically by the widget):

Parameter	Description
page	Current page number for paginated integration list
limit	Number of integrations per page

Example implementation (Next.js):

import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from "next/server";

const corsHeaders = {
  "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*",
  "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "POST, OPTIONS",
  "Access-Control-Allow-Headers": "Content-Type, Authorization, x-user-id",
};

export async function OPTIONS() {
  return NextResponse.json({}, { headers: corsHeaders });
}

export async function POST(req: NextRequest) {
  try {
    const userId = req.headers.get("x-user-id");

    if (!userId) {
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: "Unauthorized" },
        { status: 401, headers: corsHeaders }
      );
    }

    // The Auth widget sends pagination params as query parameters
    const page = req.nextUrl.searchParams.get("page");
    const limit = req.nextUrl.searchParams.get("limit");

    const response = await fetch(
      `https://api.withone.ai/v1/authkit/token?page=${page}&limit=${limit}`,
      {
        method: "POST",
        headers: {
          "Content-Type": "application/json",
          "X-One-Secret": process.env.ONE_SECRET_KEY!,
        },
        body: JSON.stringify({
          identity: userId,
          identityType: "user", // "user" | "team" | "organization" | "project"
        }),
      }
    );

    if (!response.ok) {
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: "Failed to generate token" },
        { status: response.status, headers: corsHeaders }
      );
    }

    const token = await response.json();
    return NextResponse.json(token, { headers: corsHeaders });
  } catch (error) {
    return NextResponse.json(
      { error: "Failed to generate token" },
      { status: 500, headers: corsHeaders }
    );
  }
}

Success response (200):

{
  "rows": [
    {
      "id": 41596,
      "connectionDefId": 34,
      "type": "api",
      "title": "ActiveCampaign",
      "image": "https://assets.withone.ai/connectors/activecampaign.svg",
      "environment": "test",
      "tags": [],
      "active": true
    },
    {
      "id": 41524,
      "connectionDefId": 109,
      "type": "api",
      "title": "Anthropic",
      "image": "https://assets.withone.ai/connectors/anthropic.svg",
      "environment": "test",
      "tags": [],
      "active": true
    }
  ],
  "total": 247,
  "pages": 3,
  "page": 1,
  "requestId": 110256
}

The response includes a paginated list of available integrations. The widget handles pagination automatically by calling your token endpoint with different page values.

Configuration & Management

All configuration for the Auth component is managed via the One Dashboard. From the dashboard, you can:

• Choose which apps are visible — Select which integrations appear in the Auth modal for your users
• Configure OAuth credentials — Use One's default client ID and client secret, or bring your own for any integration
• Adjust scopes — Customize the OAuth scopes requested for each integration

AuthKit configuration is scoped at the project level, enabling multi-tenant architecture. Each project in your One account can have its own set of visible apps, OAuth credentials, and scopes — allowing you to serve different configurations to different products or customer segments from a single account.
