DAR Open Network

DAR ID emerges as a unified account management system, enabling developers to seamlessly integrate Web3 social login into their dApps. This integration transforms the conventional sign-in experience into a gateway to decentralized possibilities, allowing users to access dApps using familiar credentials like email or social media accounts

Key Benefits of DAR ID:

  1. Seamless Onboarding: DAR ID eliminates the friction associated with creating crypto wallets, such as managing private keys and secret recovery phrases. Users can sign in with credentials they already know, simplifying the entry into the Web3 ecosystem.
  2. Intuitive Experience: By offering commonly used social logins, DAR ID provides a smooth and familiar transition into Web3 for existing users. This approach enhances user adoption by reducing the learning curve typically associated with decentralized platforms.
  3. Easy Account Management: DAR ID offers an interface for monitoring all user account information, giving developers a clear overview of their application’s user base and status. This centralized management simplifies user administration across multiple platforms.
  4. One Account for Multiple Games and dApps: A single DAR ID allows users to access all games and dApps within the DAR Open Network without the need to create multiple accounts. This unified approach enhances user convenience and encourages engagement across the ecosystem.

Implementing DAR ID OAuth2 Integration:

The DAR ID OAuth2 integration enables applications to authenticate users through the DAR ID identity system. The standard authorization code grant flow involves several steps:

  • Requesting User Authorization: Direct users to the DAR ID authorization endpoint to obtain their consent.
  • Exchanging Authorization Code for Access Token: Once authorized, exchange the received authorization code for an access token.
  • Refreshing the Token: Implement token refresh mechanisms to maintain user sessions without requiring repeated logins.
  • Retrieving User Information: Use the access token to fetch user details from DAR ID, facilitating personalized experiences within your application.

Important Considerations

  • Underlying Technology: DAR ID is built on top of Embarky. Ensure you use the domains explicitly specified in the official documentation, as they represent the correct endpoints for interacting with the DAR ID OAuth2 authentication system.
  • Token Signing: The `access_token` is signed using the HS256 algorithm with your `client_secret`. When utilizing the `access_token`, use your `client_id` as the app ID.

By integrating DAR ID, developers can offer users a streamlined and secure authentication experience, lowering barriers to entry and fostering broader adoption of Web3 technologies. This approach not only simplifies user onboarding but also enhances the overall user experience, making decentralized applications more accessible to a wider audience.
