Connectors

Apple Login Connector

The Apple Login connector authenticates users with Sign in with Apple and retrieves Apple ID attributes for use in DaVinci flows.

Setup

Resources

You can find more information and setup help in the following:

Requirements

To use the connector, you’ll need:

  • An Apple Developer account.

Configuring Apple as an IdP

Before configuring the Apple Login connector in DaVinci, register the application in the Apple Developer portal and collect the values that Apple generates to configure Apple as an identity provider (IdP).

You’ll complete three tasks in the Apple Developer portal:

Creating an App ID

When you register your application, Apple generates an App ID to identify the application. You’ll need this value to connect the application to DaVinci.

Steps

  1. Go to the Apple Developer site and sign on to your Apple Developer account.

    If you don’t have an Apple Developer account, you’ll need to create one.

  2. Click Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.

  3. On the left, click Identifiers and then click the icon.

  4. In the Register a New Identifier section, select App IDs.

  5. In the Register an App ID section, enter a value for the Bundle ID.

  6. Copy the following values to a secure location:

    • App ID prefix (Team ID): Identifies your team or organization.

    • Bundle ID: Identifies a group of applications.

  7. In the list of available capabilities, select Sign in with Apple.

  8. Click Continue and Register.

Creating a Services ID

The Services ID identifies the particular instance of your application. The Services ID is equivalent to a client ID in DaVinci.

Steps

  1. On the Apple Developer site, sign on to your Apple Developer account and then click Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.

  2. In the Register a New Identifier section, select Services ID.

  3. Enter the following information:

    • Description: A brief description of the application.

    • Identifier: The path to the application. This value will be used as the client ID in PingOne.

  4. Click Continue and Register.

  5. In the list, select the service you just created.

  6. Select Sign in with Apple and click Configure.

  7. Select the primary App ID and click the icon.

  8. Enter a value for Domains and subdomains.

    This is the top-level domain for your application.

  9. Leave the Return URLs blank for now.

    This is the path in your application that users are redirected to after they have authenticated with Apple. This value is equivalent to a callback URI. You’ll enter this value after you set up your application in DaVinci.

  10. Click Next, and then click Done.

  11. Click Continue, and then click Save.

Creating a private key

When you register your application, Apple generates a private key for client authentication. You’ll need this value when you add the application to DaVinci.

Steps

  1. On the Apple Developer site, click Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.

  2. On the left, click Keys.

  3. To register a new key, click the icon.

  4. Enter a value for Key Name.

  5. Select Sign in with Apple and click Configure.

  6. Select the primary App ID you created earlier.

  7. Click Save and then click Continue.

  8. Click Register.

  9. Copy the Key ID to a secure location.

    You’ll use this value when you add the IdP in DaVinci.

  10. To save the key to the local file system, click Download.

    The key is saved as a text file with a .p8 file extension. The key will be used as the client secret signing key and its identifier will be used as the private key in DaVinci.

    You can only download the key once. Save the file to a secure location because the key is not saved in your developer account, and you won’t be able to download it again. If the Download button is disabled, you already downloaded the key.

Configuring the Apple Login connector

Add the connector in DaVinci as shown in Adding a connector, then configure it as follows.

Connector configuration

Use the values from the Apple Developer portal to populate the connector’s general properties.

Property Description

Issuer

Using the connector in a flow

Redirecting users to Apple

A screen capture of the Apple redirect flow.

This flow redirects the user to Apple for authentication. After the user signs in, DaVinci automatically completes the token exchange and returns identity claims to the flow for downstream logic.

Test the flow by clicking Save, Deploy, and Try Flow.
