When someone connects with an application using ConnectyCube, the application will need to obtain a session token which provides temporary, secure access to ConnectyCube APIs.
A session token is an opaque string that identifies a user and an application.
And I think this might collide with my SuperTokens, which I am 100% set on implementing. So I emailed them and they came back to me with this
My Q:
ConnectyCube has its own Authentication system that users have to go through. I however have developed an app with its own very specific Authentication system and I thus dont want to use the ConnectyCube authentication. nor store users passwords in ConnectyCube. Is this possible?
Their Answer:
Yes it is possible,
You can use ConnectyCube User as an opaque User, with only ID field set. The rest you can store at your own DB.
We have a Custom Identity Provider mechanism for it.
Can you make sense of how one would use supertokens authentication when using an external SDK?
