Trusted Accounts SDK for Node.js

The Trusted Accounts Node SDK allows you to integrate user verification and validation into your Node.js application with minimal setup. It supports the OIDC flow, dynamic redirects, and session management.

Installation

npm install --save trusted-accounts-sdk-node

Setup

Get your platform credentials by creating a free developer account here: developer console.

import TrustedAccountsSDK from 'trusted-accounts-sdk-node';

const taClient = new TrustedAccountsSDK({
  clientId: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
  clientSecret: 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET',
  redirectUri: 'YOUR_REDIRECT_URL'
});

Example Usage

Start the Validation Flow.

import TrustedAccountsClient from 'trusted-accounts-sdk-node';

app.get('/start-verification', async (req, res) => {
    const trustedClient = new TrustedAccountsClient(
      "CLIENT_ID", // Your Client ID
      "REDIRECT_URL" // Your Redirect URI
    );

    // Generate the verification URL
    const verificationUrl = await trustedClient.generateVerificationLink(
        '[email protected]', // The email of the user you want to validate
    );
   
    // Redirect the user to the verification page 
    // or create a verification button to trigger it manually
    res.redirect(verificationUrl);
});

Handle the Callback

app.get('/callback', async (req, res) => {
  const trustedCallback = await taClient.handleCallback(req.originalUrl);
  res.send(`Verification completed! Trusted ID: ${trustedCallback.trustedId}`);
});

Retrieve User Data

app.get('/user', async (req, res) => {
  const user = await taClient.getUser('USER_TRUSTED_ID');
  res.json(user);
});

That's it! You have successfully integrated Trusted Accounts on your platform! 🖖 Try validate yourself and then go to the user list in the developer console to find the newly validated user.
