Get started with the integration
We recommend you to create a sandbox account to test our services before implementing them in production.
Prerequisites
Access to Mobiil-ID
Before you can create a production account, you need to configure Mobiil-ID access with an onboarding manager. To get help with this, please contact us.
Define the service provider name
When enabling access, your onboarding manager will ask you what service provider name you prefer to be displayed for your end-users in the login screens. Signicat will send this to SK ID solutions and let you know when this name is approved. This name will be the same for both Smart-ID and Mobiil-ID.
Certificate information
There are no certificate exchanges needed to use Mobiil-ID.
Create a production account
Once you have received the needed permissions, you can create the account from the Dashboard:
- Click the name of your organisation at the top left of the screen and then select Manage.
- Under Organisation management, click Add Account.
- Enter the name of your account under Account Name.
- Tick the Production account type.
- Click Create to create the new account.
Add ID method to the Dashboard
- In the Dashboard, navigate to eID Hub > ID Methods.
- To enable the ID method, click Add new in the top right.
- Choose the ID method from the list. Then, click Save.
- Now you can see the ID method listed and enabled with status "Active" in the ID methods list.
Select protocol
To establish a connection between Signicat Mobiil-ID and your application, you need to use a standard authentication protocol.
Signicat supports the standard OIDC and SAML 2.0 protocols. In addition, we offer the Signicat Authentication REST API.
Choice of protocol depends on what you prefer and what you want to achieve. The Authentication REST API gives you a lot of flexibility and is easy to set up. Between the other two, we recommend using OIDC, since SAML 2.0 is much more complex to implement on your side and usually requires a federation agent already in place. OIDC is industry standard and you do not need to manage user sessions on your own (like with the Authentication REST API).
For more information about the different protocol types, see the Signicat eID Hub documentation.
Set up the protocol
For information about how to set up the different protocols, see the Quick start guide.
