Get started with the integration of Skilríki á síma

Have you tried it out in sandbox?

We recommend that you test our services with your sandbox account before implementing them in production.

Prerequisites

Access to Skilríki á síma

Before you can create a production account, you need to configure Skilríki á síma access with an onboarding manager. To get help with this, please contact us.

Create a production account in the Dashboard

Once you have received the needed permissions, you can create the account from the Signicat Dashboard:

4. Now, review that the eID is available and displayed as "Active" in the eIDs page.

Set up a connection with a protocol

To establish a connection between Signicat Skilríki á síma and your application, you need to use a standard authentication protocol.

For the complete documentation index, see llms.txt

Supported authentication protocols

Signicat supports the standard OpenID Connect (OIDC) and SAML 2.0 protocols. In addition, we offer our bespoke Signicat Authentication REST API.

The protocol you choose depends on your goals and preferences. The Authentication REST API provides flexibility and an easy setup. Otherwise, we recommend OIDC, since SAML 2.0 is much more complex to implement and usually requires a federation agent. OIDC is an industry standard with managed user sessions, unlike the Authentication REST API.

To learn more about these authentication protocols, see the Signicat eID and Wallet Hub documentation.

For information about how to set up the different protocols, see the Quick start guide.
