Authentication
In order to use the abilities of the iOS SDK in your client app, a TapTalk instance must be initiated in each client app through user authentication with TapTalk.io server. An authenticated user account allows the instance to communicate and interact with the server. The following explains how to authenticate your user with the server.
TapTalk.io's Authentication Flow
When the user logs in to your application, your backend server will have to request an Authentication Ticket from TapTalk.io server. TapTalk.io server will return the requested Authentication Ticket and user ID to your backend server. The client application (iOS or Android) can then retrieve the ticket from your backend server to implement TapTalk.io's SDK by initializing the SDK using the obtained Authentication Ticket.
You can see the documentation on how to obtain Authentication Ticket from TapTalk.io's Server on the Authentication in TapTalk.io's Server API page.
