Social Login
Supported identity providers
More coming soon ...
Logical flow
The below chart goes over the logical flow of the SOCIAL LOGIN service and the process for retrieving data from the Social Providers.
1. Display the Social Login interface on your page.
2. Once a user has selected the Social Provider they would like to use they will be prompted to input their credentials in an authentication interface that is managed by the Social Providers. Permission to access their data will also happen at this time.
3. After successful authentication the interface will return a specific access token to your Server.
4. Request User Profile data or extended data like Groups and Contacts via the RUBYMAGE Social APIs. If the user has granted permissions you can also message friends or do Push Notifications.
5. All of the API endpoints return normalized responses in JSON format.
