IdentityCredential: configURL property

Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.

The configURL read-only property of the IdentityCredential interface returns a string specifying the config file URL of the identity provider (IdP) used for sign-in.

See Provide a config file for more information.

Value

A string.

Examples

Basic federated sign-in and configURL access

Relying parties (RPs) can call navigator.credentials.get() with the identity option to make a request for users to sign in to the RP via an identity provider (IdP), using identity federation. A request indicating a single provider would look like this:

js
async function signIn() {
  const identityCredential = await navigator.credentials.get({
    identity: {
      providers: [
        {
          configURL: "https://accounts.idp.example/config.json",
          clientId: "********",
          params: {
            /* IdP-specific parameters */
          },
        },
      ],
    },
  });

  console.log(identityCredential.configURL);
}

A successful navigator.credentials.get() call that includes an identity option fulfills with an IdentityCredential instance, which can be used to access the configURL of the IdP used for sign-in.

Check out Federated Credential Management API (FedCM) for more details on how this works. This call will start off the sign-in flow described in FedCM sign-in flow.
