Authentication (UAA)

The Predix SDK for iOS supports interfacing with Predix UAA and several forms of UAA authentication.

UAA Integration for Predix SDK for iOS Features

• Native authentication using User Credentials
• WebView authentication using Authorization Code Grant
• RefreshToken authentication using Biometrics (TouchID and FaceID)
• Client Credential authentication for applications that do not use a Username and Password to protect their applications.

Supported iOS Features

• Native UI login
• UIWebView login
• WKWebView login
• SafariViewController login
• SFAuthenticationSession

Support for Biometric Authentication

The SDK works with TouchID and FaceID out of the box. You can simply tell the Authentication API that you want to use biometric authentication and the SDK does the work for you.

Privacy for User Credentials

The SDK respects user privacy and never stores the Usernames and Passwords. All tokens are secured in Apple's device Keychain and can only be accessed by the user who stored them.
