Introduction

By connecting OwnID to your data storage provider, you maintain full control over your users’ authentication, session, and profile information. To integrate OwnID with your existing database, you need to expose two endpoints on your server: one for retrieving data and one for updating data. These endpoints will handle two main block types:

  • Profile: This block type stores and manages user profile data such as name, email, and other profile-related information that is essential for personalizing user interactions, according to your profile schema.
  • Session: This block type stores session-specific data required for managing user sessions, including authentication tokens or session expiration details.

This document explains how to set up and manage these block types using Retrieve and Update endpoints.
