Authenticate

Authenticate

Wraps Stytch's Authenticate endpoint. Call this method to authenticate a TOTP code entered by a user.

If this method succeeds, the user will be logged in, granted an active session, and the session data will be persisted on device.

You can listen for successful login events anywhere in the codebase with the stytch.session.onChange() method or useStytchSession hook.
