Installing the Glide SDK

The Glide SDK provides a unified interface for all Glide Identity services including Magical Auth.

Frontend SDK (Browser)​

NPM/Yarn​

npm install @glideidentity/glide-fe-sdk-web
# or
yarn add @glideidentity/glide-fe-sdk-web

CDN​

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@glideidentity/glide-fe-sdk-web/dist/browser/web-client-sdk.min.js"></script>

React Native​

npm install @glideidentity/glide-fe-sdk-react-native

For offline install patterns (vendor-hosted tarball, SHA-256 checksum), contact your Glide integration lead. Full integration notes: React Native quickstart.

Android (Native)​

Gradle (Kotlin DSL — app/build.gradle.kts):

dependencies {
    implementation("com.glideidentity:glide-fe-sdk-android:1.0.0")
}

Gradle (Groovy — app/build.gradle):

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.glideidentity:glide-fe-sdk-android:1.0.0'
}

Requirements: minSdk = 23 (Android 6+). TS43 strategy uses the Android Digital Credentials API (Android 9+ / API 28, Google Play Services 24.0+, registered carrier credential provider). compileSdk 35 is required by the androidx.credentials library.

For air-gapped CI, contact your Glide integration lead for a vendor-hosted AAR with a SHA-256 sidecar. Full integration notes: Android quickstart.

Configuration​

Frontend - PhoneAuthClient​

import { PhoneAuthClient } from '@glideidentity/glide-fe-sdk-web';

const client = new PhoneAuthClient({
  endpoints: {
    prepare: '/api/phone-auth/prepare',
    process: '/api/phone-auth/process'
  }
});

React Native — PhoneAuthClient​

import { PhoneAuthClient } from '@glideidentity/glide-fe-sdk-react-native';

const glide = new PhoneAuthClient({
  endpoints: {
    prepare: 'https://your-backend.example.com/api/phone-auth/prepare',
    process: 'https://your-backend.example.com/api/phone-auth/process',
    reportInvocation: 'https://your-backend.example.com/api/phone-auth/report-invocation',
  },
  debug: __DEV__,
});

Android — Glide client​

import com.glideidentity.fe.sdk.android.Glide
import com.glideidentity.fe.sdk.android.ClientConfig

val client = Glide.createClient(
    context = applicationContext,
    baseUrl = "https://your-backend.example.com",
    clientConfig = ClientConfig(
        prepareEndpoint = "/api/phone-auth/prepare",
        processEndpoint = "/api/phone-auth/process",
        reportInvocationEndpoint = "/api/phone-auth/report-invocation",
    ),
)

// Then, inside an Activity / Fragment, before authenticate():
client.setActivityContext(this)

Backend - Node.js​

import { MagicalAuthClient } from '@glideidentity/glide-be-node-magical-auth';

const glide = new MagicalAuthClient({
  clientId: process.env.GLIDE_CLIENT_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.GLIDE_CLIENT_SECRET
});

Backend - Go​

import glide "github.com/GlideIdentity/glide-be-sdk-go"

client := glide.New(
    glide.WithClientCredentials(
        os.Getenv("GLIDE_CLIENT_ID"),
        os.Getenv("GLIDE_CLIENT_SECRET"),
    ),
)

Backend - Java​

import com.glideidentity.magicalauth.MagicalAuthClient;

MagicalAuthClient client = MagicalAuthClient.builder()
    .clientId(System.getenv("GLIDE_CLIENT_ID"))
    .clientSecret(System.getenv("GLIDE_CLIENT_SECRET"))
    .build();
