• and many more.

Open the settings page directly in websites

In case your application is a website, the web SDK does not provide a method to open the settings page. However, you can construct the URL to the settings page as follows:

https://<your-app-endpoint>/settings

And then you can just set this as the href of your anchor tag

<div>
    <a href="https://<your-app-endpoint>/settings">Open Settings Page</a>
</div>

Open the settings page with the SDK in mobile apps

If you are working on a mobile apps, you can open the settings page using the SDK. When the end-user has signed in, the SDK provides a method to open the settings page in a webview.

import React, { useCallback } from "react";
import authgear, { Page } from "@authgear/react-native";
import { View, Button } from "react-native";

function SettingsScreen() {
  const onPressOpenSettingsPage = useCallback(() => {
    authgear.open(Page.Settings).then(() => {
      // When the promise resolves, the webview have been closed.
    });
  }, []);
  return (
    <View>
      <Button
        title="Open Settings Page"
        onPress={onPressOpenSettingsPage}
      />
    </View>
  );
}

iOS

func onPressOpenSettingsPage(sender: UIButton, forEvent event: UIEvent) {
    authgear.open(.settings) {
        // When the completion handler is called, the webview is closed.
    }
}

public void onClickOpenSettingsPage() {
    authgear.open(Page.Settings, null, new OnOpenURLListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClosed() {
            // The webview is closed.
        }

        @Override
        public void onFailed(Throwable throwable) {
            // Some error occured.
        }
    });
