account-linking dialog

Description of the account-linking dialog, one of the dialogs that handles users’ account linking

Introduction

The account-linking dialog is included in the global linking library.

It is in charge of handling user’s account linking for channels using integrated authentication, that is, channels that already have a proper user’s identifier that should be linked with the corresponding auraId and that cannot handle Kernel authentication directly:

  • WebClient
  • Facebook
  • WhatsApp

This dialog launches authentication in Kernel based on browser navigation. It includes several steps to validate the Terms and Conditions of the services and to launch the user’s autentication in the OB authenticator and in Kernel that, in the end, would register the auraId in Aura users’ database.
