@chilly-king-10285 how can I set return to flow using ory sdk in my nextjs app from e specific private page or functions, even if the user register the return to url should be same
b
A message from kapa.ai
To set a return URL in your Next.js application using the Ory SDK, you can use the
return_to
query parameter when initializing a flow. This parameter should be set to the URL of the page the user should be redirected to after they authenticate. For example, if you're creating a login flow, you can pass the
return_to
parameter to the endpoint that initializes the flow. Here's an example of how you can do this:
Copy code
tsx frontend     .createBrowserLoginFlow({       returnTo: returnTo || "/", // redirect to the root path after login       // if the user has a session, refresh it       refresh: true,       // if the aal2 query parameter is set, we get the two factor login flow UI nodes       aal: aal2 ? "aal2" : "aal1",     })     .then(({ data: flow }) => {       // set the flow data       setFlow(flow)     })     .catch((err) => {       // Couldn't create login flow       // handle the error     })
(Source: [Ory Kratos Documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/bring-your-own-ui/custom-ui-basic-integration#create-login-flow)) The
return_to
URL is the redirect URL after the flow is completed. For example, with a login flow, the redirect happens after a successful login. Please note that the
return_to
query parameter doesn't automatically persist across different flows and must be added to new flows. For example, if the user starts a login flow with
return_to
URL set and then switches to a registration flow, the
return_to
URL isn't used for the registration flow. In such a case, your application can re-use the same
return_to
from the login flow by extracting the
return_to
URL from the login flow's
flow.return_to
and adding it to the registration flow.
Copy code
tsx sdk.getLoginFlow({ id: flow }).then(({ data: flow }) => {     const returnTo = flow.return_to     return sdk.createBrowserRegistrationFlow({       id: flow.id,       return_to: returnTo,     })   })
(Source: [Ory Kratos Documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/bring-your-own-ui/custom-ui-advanced-integration#advanced-redirects))

@chilly-king-10285 where to add this code? login.tsx or registration.tsx?
Copy code
sdk.getLoginFlow({ id: flow }).then(({ data: flow }) => {  
  const returnTo = flow.return_to  
  return sdk.createBrowserRegistrationFlow({  
    id: flow.id,  
    return_to: returnTo,  
  })  
})

A message from kapa.ai
The code you provided is used to create a registration flow with a
return_to
URL that is retrieved from a login flow. This code should be placed in the component or function that handles the transition from the login flow to the registration flow in your application. In terms of file structure, this could be in a separate function that is called when a user decides to switch from logging in to registering. This function could be in a separate file or within
login.tsx
or
registration.tsx
, depending on how your application is structured. Here's a simplified example of how you might structure this in `login.tsx`:
Copy code
tsx // login.tsx import { useEffect } from "react" import { FrontendApi } from "@ory/client"  const frontend = new FrontendApi(/* your configuration here */)  export const Login = () => {   // ... your other login code here ...    const switchToRegistration = (flowId) => {     frontend.getLoginFlow({ id: flowId }).then(({ data: flow }) => {       const returnTo = flow.return_to       return frontend.createBrowserRegistrationFlow({         id: flow.id,         return_to: returnTo,       })     })   }    // Call switchToRegistration when the user decides to switch to registration   // For example, you might call it in a button click handler }
Remember to replace
FrontendApi
and other placeholders with your actual configuration and code. Also, ensure that error handling is in place for the promises. Please note that this is a simplified example and your actual implementation might need to be more complex depending on your application's requirements.

A message from kapa.ai
The error message is indicating that the
createBrowserRegistrationFlow
method does not expect an
id
property in its parameters. The
FrontendApiCreateBrowserRegistrationFlowRequest
type does not have an
id
property. The
createBrowserRegistrationFlow
method is used to create a new registration flow, so it doesn't need an
id
as input. Instead, it returns a new flow with a new
id
. Here's how you can modify your code:
Copy code
tsx const switchToRegistration = (flowId: string) => {   ory.getLoginFlow({id: flowId}).then(({data: flow}) => {     const returnTo = flow.return_to     return ory.createBrowserRegistrationFlow({       return_to: returnTo,     })   }) }
In this code,
createBrowserRegistrationFlow
is called with the
return_to
URL from the login flow, but without an
id
. The new registration flow that is created will have its own new
id
. Please note that you should add error handling to your promises to handle any errors that might occur during the API calls.

@chilly-king-10285 where to implement refresh=true in my react/nextjs app where I implemented ory using ory sdk?
b
A message from kapa.ai
To implement the
refresh=true
parameter in your React/Next.js app using the Ory SDK, you should add it when creating a login flow. This is typically done in the component or function that handles user authentication. Here's an example of how you can implement this in your React/Next.js app:
Copy code
tsx import { FrontendApi, Configuration } from "@ory/client"  const frontend = new FrontendApi(   new Configuration({     basePath: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_ORY_SDK_URL,     baseOptions: {       withCredentials: true,     },   }) )  const refreshLogin = () => {   frontend     .createBrowserLoginFlow({       refresh: true, // This forces a session refresh       returnTo: "/dashboard", // Redirect to dashboard after login     })     .then(({ data: flow }) => {       // Handle the flow data       setFlow(flow)     })     .catch((err) => {       // Handle any errors       console.error("Error creating login flow:", err)     }) }
This code should be placed in the component or page where you want to trigger a session refresh. For example, you might call the
refreshLogin
function: 1. When a user clicks a "Refresh Session" button 2. Before performing sensitive operations 3. After a period of inactivity Here are some key points about this implementation: 1. The
refresh: true
parameter is added to the
createBrowserLoginFlow
method call. This tells Ory to refresh the session [as described in the Ory Kratos documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/user-login#refreshing-a-session). 2. The
returnTo
parameter specifies where the user should be redirected after successfully refreshing their session. Adjust this URL as needed for your application. 3. This implementation assumes you're using the Ory SDK directly. If you're using the
@ory/integrations
package in a Next.js app, you might need to adjust the SDK initialization as shown in the [Next.js integration guide](https://www.ory.sh/docs/getting-started/integrate-auth/nextjs#install-ory). Remember, session refreshing should be implemented thoughtfully to balance security with user experience. Use it in scenarios where you need to confirm the user's identity without fully logging them out.

@chilly-king-10285 I've self hosted ory backend, now how can I connect and develop frontend using tunnel in my react project
b
A message from kapa.ai
To connect and develop your frontend using Ory Tunnel with a self-hosted Ory backend in your React project, you can follow these steps: 1. First, make sure you have the Ory CLI installed. If not, you can install it following the instructions in the [Ory CLI documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/cli/installation). 2. Start your self-hosted Ory backend and note the URL where it's running. 3. In your React project directory, open a new terminal window and run the Ory Tunnel command. Replace
{your-ory-backend-url}
with the actual URL of your self-hosted Ory backend:
Copy code
ory tunnel --dev <http://localhost:3000> {your-ory-backend-url}
This command will start the Ory Tunnel on port 4000 by default. The
--dev
flag disables some security checks to make local development easier. 4. In your React application code, update the Ory SDK configuration to use the Tunnel URL:
Copy code
tsx import { Configuration, FrontendApi } from "@ory/client"  const frontend = new FrontendApi(   new Configuration({     basePath: "<http://localhost:4000>",     baseOptions: {       withCredentials: true,     },   }) )
5. Now you can use the
frontend
object to interact with your self-hosted Ory backend through the Tunnel. For example, to create a login flow:
Copy code
tsx frontend.createBrowserLoginFlow()   .then(({ data: flow }) => {     // Handle the flow data     setFlow(flow)   })   .catch((err) => {     // Handle any errors     console.error("Error creating login flow:", err)   })
By using the Ory Tunnel, you ensure that the Ory APIs are exposed under the same top-level domain as your application, avoiding CORS issues. Remember to keep the Ory Tunnel running while developing your frontend. Also, make sure your React application is running on the port specified in the Tunnel command (in this case, http://localhost:3000). For more detailed information about using Ory Tunnel, you can refer to the [Ory CLI documentation on Proxy and Tunnel](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/cli/proxy-and-tunnel).

A message from kapa.ai
I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. The error you're encountering is because the
ory tunnel
command is designed to work with Ory Network projects, not self-hosted Ory instances. Let me provide you with the correct approach for your self-hosted Ory setup. For a self-hosted Ory instance, you don't need to use the Ory Tunnel. Instead, you should configure your React application to directly communicate with your self-hosted Ory backend. Here's how you can do it: 1. Ensure your self-hosted Ory backend is running and accessible. 2. In your React application, configure the Ory SDK to point to your self-hosted Ory instance:
Copy code
typescript import { Configuration, FrontendApi } from "@ory/client"  const ory = new FrontendApi(   new Configuration({     basePath: "<https://admin.auth.service.staging.global.baharcart.com>",     baseOptions: {       withCredentials: true,     },   }) )
3. Make sure your self-hosted Ory instance is configured to allow CORS requests from your React application's domain. You'll need to add the following to your Ory configuration file (e.g.,
kratos.yml
):
Copy code
yaml serve:   public:     cors:       enabled: true       allowed_origins:         - <http://localhost:5173>       allowed_methods:         - POST         - GET         - PUT         - PATCH         - DELETE       allowed_headers:         - Authorization         - Content-Type       exposed_headers:         - Content-Type       allow_credentials: true       debug: true
4. Restart your Ory instance to apply the CORS configuration. 5. Now you can use the
ory
object in your React application to interact with your self-hosted Ory backend:
Copy code
typescript ory.createBrowserLoginFlow()   .then(({ data: flow }) => {     // Handle the flow data     setFlow(flow)   })   .catch((err) => {     // Handle any errors     console.error("Error creating login flow:", err)   })
This approach allows your React application running on
<http://localhost:5173>
to communicate directly with your self-hosted Ory instance at
<https://admin.auth.service.staging.global.baharcart.com>
. Remember to adjust the CORS configuration and the
basePath
in your React app if you deploy your frontend to a different URL in production. For more information on configuring CORS for self-hosted Ory, you can refer to the [Ory Kratos Configuration documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/reference/configuration).

To set up SMS OTP (One-Time Password) service for phone verification in your self-hosted Ory instance, you need to configure an SMS courier channel. However, it's important to note that Ory doesn't provide a direct SMTP service for SMS. Instead, you'll need to configure an HTTP-based SMS delivery option. Here's how you can set it up: 1. First, you need to choose an SMS provider that supports sending SMS via HTTP API (e.g., Twilio, Plivo, AWS SNS). 2. Once you have your SMS provider set up, you need to configure the SMS courier channel in your Ory Kratos configuration file. Here's an example of how to do this:
Copy code
yaml courier:   channels:     - id: sms       type: http       request_config:         url: <https://api.your-sms-provider.com/send-sms>         method: POST         body: <base64://ZnVuY3Rpb24oY3R4KSB7CiAgVG86IGN0eC5yZWNpcGllbnQsCiAgQm9keTogY3R4LmJvZHksCn0>=         headers:           Content-Type: application/json         auth:           type: basic_auth           config:             user: your-username             password: your-password
3. The
body
field in the configuration is a base64 encoded Jsonnet template. When decoded, it looks like this:
Copy code
jsonnet function(ctx) {   To: ctx.recipient,   Body: ctx.body, }
You may need to adjust this template based on your SMS provider's API requirements. 4. Next, you need to enable the SMS one-time code in your configuration:
Copy code
yaml selfservice:   methods:     code:       passwordless_enabled: true
5. Finally, make sure your identity schema includes a phone number trait that's configured for SMS verification:
Copy code
json {   "properties": {     "traits": {       "type": "object",       "properties": {         "phone": {           "type": "string",           "format": "tel",           "title": "Phone number",           "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": {             "credentials": {               "code": {                 "identifier": true,                 "via": "sms"               }             },             "verification": {               "via": "sms"             }           }         }       }     }   } }
Remember to replace the placeholder values (like
<https://api.your-sms-provider.com/send-sms>
,
your-username
,
your-password
) with your actual SMS provider details. For more detailed information, you can refer to the following Ory documentation pages: - [SMS delivery configuration](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/emails-sms/sending-sms) - [Enable SMS one-time-code (OTP)](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/passwordless/one-time-code#enable-sms-one-time-code-otp) - [Custom identity schema](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/passwordless/one-time-code#custom-identity-schema) Please note that SMS OTP is considered less secure than other methods due to vulnerabilities like SIM swapping and SMS interception. Consider using more secure methods like Passkeys if possible.
