Integrations

Sign in with Ethereum (SIWE) can be integrated with various platforms and frameworks to provide seamless authentication experiences. This section covers popular integration options.

Available Integrations

Discussion Platforms

  • Discourse: Add SIWE authentication to your Discourse community forums

Authentication Libraries

  • Auth0: Use SIWE with Auth0's enterprise authentication platform

Integration Benefits

  • Decentralized Authentication: Users authenticate with their Ethereum wallets
  • No Passwords: Eliminates the need for traditional password-based authentication
  • ENS Support: Automatic username resolution from ENS names
  • Cross-Platform: Works across web, mobile, and desktop applications

Common Integration Patterns

Frontend Integration

Most integrations follow a similar pattern:

  1. Connect to user's wallet
  2. Create SIWE message
  3. Request signature from user
  4. Send signed message to backend for verification
  5. Establish authenticated session

Backend Verification

Backend integrations typically:

  1. Receive signed SIWE message
  2. Verify signature cryptographically
  3. Validate message parameters (domain, nonce, expiration)
  4. Create user session or JWT token

Getting Started

Choose the integration that best fits your technology stack:

  • For community platforms, see Discourse
  • For enterprise applications, explore Auth0

Custom Integrations

If you don't see your platform listed, you can build custom integrations using the TypeScript library or the OIDC Provider (which works with any OIDC-compatible client).

Community Contributions

The SIWE ecosystem welcomes community contributions. If you've built an integration for a platform not listed here, consider sharing it with the community.
