SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Helps teams implement secure, standards-based iOS authentication flows across Sign in with Apple, passkeys, OAuth, and biometric re-authentication for user-friendly sign-in experiences.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sign in with Apple integration including credential state checks and revocation handling.
  • Platform and server-backed passkey registration and sign-in with server-side validation.
  • OAuth via ASWebAuthenticationSession and Password AutoFill support for returning users, plus biometric re-auth for sensitive actions.

Quick Start

Implement the authentication flows by integrating AuthenticationServices and LocalAuthentication, wiring server-side validation for identity tokens and authorization codes, storing tokens securely in Keychain, and enabling Associated Domains for passkeys.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement Sign in with Apple including credential state checks and revocation handling?

Implement Sign in with Apple by integrating AuthenticationServices to handle Apple ID credentials, checking credential state, managing revocation, and validating identity tokens and authorization codes server-side for secure iOS onboarding.

How do I set up passkeys and Password AutoFill for an iOS app?

Set up passkeys and Password AutoFill by enabling Associated Domains, integrating AuthenticationServices for platform passkey registration, and performing server-side validation while storing credentials safely in Keychain for returning users.

What is the best way to handle OAuth sign-in via ASWebAuthenticationSession in iOS?

Handle OAuth sign-in via ASWebAuthenticationSession by integrating AuthenticationServices to manage web-based authentication flows, ensuring proper token validation and safe Keychain storage for web-based authorization credentials.

How do I use LAContext for biometric re-authentication during sensitive in-app actions?

Use LAContext from LocalAuthentication to perform biometric re-authentication for sensitive in-app actions, verifying user presence after initial sign-in to add a security layer without repeating the full authentication flow.

Do I need Associated Domains enabled to support platform passkeys on iOS?

Yes, Associated Domains must be enabled to support platform passkeys on iOS, linking your app to your web domain so AuthenticationServices can securely register and sign in users with server-backed passkey credentials.
