Implement Google Login in Your Frontend Application
Whether you choose to use the pre-designed UI from the
@teamhanko/hanko-elements package or opt for a custom UI with the @teamhanko/hanko-frontend-sdk will determine your approach to frontend integration.-
Integrate the
<hanko-auth>component fromhanko-elementsbased on our frontend guides. If everything is good, the component will display a button for signing in with ‘Google’ in login view.Post successful Google authentication, the backend sets a session cookie and errors during authentication are displayed within the component accordingly.Make sure to configure the page the web component is embedded on as your error redirect URL as well as an allowed redirect URL.
