Reclaim Protocol Backend SDKs

Welcome to the Reclaim Protocol backend SDKs documentation! These SDKs help you implement Reclaim in your server-side applications, allowing users to prove their credentials from other websites without sharing sensitive information.

Available SDKs

Reclaim Protocol offers two backend SDKs:

• JavaScript SDK for Node.js applications
• Python SDK for Python applications

Quick Start for Beginners

New to Reclaim? Here's how to get started with the backend implementation:

1. Installation Learn how to set up either the JavaScript or Python SDK in your project.

2. Backend Example Understand the basic flow of using the SDKs in a backend environment.

How It Works

Here's a simplified flow of how Reclaim works in a typical backend application:

1. User Request: A user requests to prove their credentials.
2. Backend Configuration: Your server creates a reclaimProofRequestConfig object with the necessary parameters.
3. Config Transmission: The server sends the reclaimProofRequestConfig to the frontend.
4. Frontend Initialization: The frontend initializes the Reclaim SDK using the received reclaimProofRequestConfig.
5. Request URL Generation: The frontend generates a request URL using the initialized SDK.
6. User Interaction: The user visits the request URL and logs into the target website (e.g., Amazon.com).
7. Proof Generation: A proof is created on the user's device.
8. Proof Submission: The user submits the proof to your server.
9. Verification: Your server verifies the proof and takes appropriate action.

Why Use Backend Implementation?

Using Reclaim in your backend offers several advantages:

• Enhanced Security: Keep sensitive operations server-side.
• Custom Authentication: Integrate with your existing auth system.
• Scalability: Handle multiple users and requests efficiently.
• Data Management: Store and process proofs securely on your server.
