Authentication & Wallet System

📘 General • javascript • v1 •

Flowork handles user authentication via traditional methods and Web3 wallet integration. The auth system manages JWT tokens, session persistence, and secure routes.

Authentication Overview

Flowork supports multiple ways for a user to identify themselves to the system, ensuring security while maintaining a smooth user experience.

Traditional Login

Users can authenticate using standard email and password combinations. The backend verifies credentials and issues a JSON Web Token (JWT) that the client stores and attaches to subsequent requests.

Web3 Wallet Integration

For advanced features and crypto-native users, Flowork integrates with Web3 wallets. This allows users to authenticate by signing a message with their private key, proving ownership of a specific address without needing a password.

Session Management

The auth.js Pinia store is the central source of truth for the user's authentication state on the frontend. It handles:

  • Storing the JWT
  • Tracking user profile information
  • Managing login/logout flows
Navigation guards in Vue Router ensure that unauthorized users cannot access protected views like the App Dashboard or Flow Designer.
