# X sign-in with Embedded Wallets

[Sign in with X](https://developer.x.com/en/docs/authentication/oauth-2-0) lets users authenticate with an X (Twitter) account. Choose the default connection for the quickest setup, or configure a custom connection when you need your own X credentials, consent screen, or identity provider.

The SDK value for this provider is `AUTH_CONNECTION.TWITTER`.

## Default X sign-in[​](#default-x-sign-in "Direct link to Default X sign-in")

The default connection uses the X OAuth credentials managed by Embedded Wallets. You don't need an X developer project.

### Caveats[​](#caveats "Direct link to Caveats")

- The X consent screen identifies the OAuth application managed by Embedded Wallets, not your dapp.
- You can't change the X application configuration, such as its scopes or branding, because you don't own the credentials.
- The default connection and a custom connection are separate connections, so they produce different wallet addresses for the same person unless you link them with a [group connection](/embedded-wallets/authentication/group-connections/).

### Configure the default connection[​](#configure-the-default-connection "Direct link to Configure the default connection")

1. Open your project in the [MetaMask Developer Dashboard](https://developer.metamask.io).
2. Select **Social Connections**.
3. Enable **X** (Twitter).
![X in the Social Connections settings](/assets/images/authentication-social-connections-39836c31a54393f4387abf946cf59a2f.png) 

The SDK reads the connection from the dashboard. You don't need to add X credentials to your SDK configuration.

## Custom X sign-in[​](#custom-x-sign-in "Direct link to Custom X sign-in")

Use a custom connection when the X authorization belongs to your dapp or an identity platform you control. Your X credentials sit in an identity provider such as Auth0 or Firebase, or in your own backend.

X credentials can't go in the dashboard

Google, Discord, and Twitch connections take only a client ID, because they accept `https://auth.web3auth.io/auth` as a redirect URI for a public client. X OAuth requires a confidential client (a client secret) to exchange the authorization code, so Embedded Wallets doesn't accept an X client ID on the social connection.

Preserve wallet addresses

Decide between the default and a custom connection before you onboard users. Moving from the default X connection to Auth0, Firebase, or your own JWT connection changes every user's wallet address unless both connections are in a [group connection](/embedded-wallets/authentication/group-connections/) with matching user identifiers.

### Auth0[​](#auth0 "Direct link to Auth0")

1. [Configure Twitter as a social connection in Auth0](https://marketplace.auth0.com/integrations/twitter-social-connection).
2. [Create an Auth0 connection](/embedded-wallets/authentication/custom-connections/auth0/) in the MetaMask Developer Dashboard.
3. For an implicit flow, call Embedded Wallets with the Auth0 connection ID and set the Auth0 connection name to `twitter`.
4. For a JWT flow, authenticate with the Auth0 SDK, retrieve its raw ID token, and pass that token to Embedded Wallets.

### Firebase Authentication[​](#firebase-authentication "Direct link to Firebase Authentication")

1. [Enable Twitter authentication in Firebase](https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/web/twitter-login).
2. [Create a Firebase connection](/embedded-wallets/authentication/custom-connections/firebase/) in the MetaMask Developer Dashboard.
3. Sign the user in with the Firebase SDK and obtain a fresh Firebase ID token.
4. Pass the Firebase ID token and your Firebase connection ID to Embedded Wallets using the JWT flow.

Amazon Cognito doesn't offer X as a first-party social identity provider.

### Your own backend[​](#your-own-backend "Direct link to Your own backend")

1. Complete Sign in with X in your client and send the result to your backend.
2. Exchange the authorization code with X's token endpoint using your client secret, then validate the user identity before trusting it.
3. Issue a fresh JWT with an `iat` no more than 60 seconds old and expose the signing public key through a JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) endpoint.
4. [Create a custom JWT connection](/embedded-wallets/authentication/custom-connections/custom-jwt/) that validates your issuer, audience, JWKS, and user identifier.
5. Pass your JWT and custom connection ID to Embedded Wallets.

Don't send an X client secret to a client application.

## Group X connections[​](#group-x-connections "Direct link to Group X connections")

A [group connection](/embedded-wallets/authentication/group-connections/) gives the same person one wallet address across several login methods.

Default X and X through Auth0 or Firebase are separate connections. They produce different wallet addresses unless you group them and every connection in the group uses the same JWT user identifier (`email` or an aligned `sub`).

Pass both the child connection ID and grouped connection ID when you bypass the modal:

```
await connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<X_AUTH_CONNECTION_ID>',
  groupedAuthConnectionId: '<GROUPED_AUTH_CONNECTION_ID>',
  idToken,
})

```

## Usage examples[​](#usage-examples "Direct link to Usage examples")

The implicit examples open an X or Auth0 authorization flow. The JWT examples assume your Auth0, Firebase, or backend integration has already returned a fresh ID token.

### Default implicit flow

- React
- Vue
- JavaScript
- React Native
- Android
- iOS
- Flutter
- Unity
- Unreal Engine

```
import { AUTH_CONNECTION, WALLET_CONNECTORS } from '@web3auth/modal'
import { useWeb3AuthConnect } from '@web3auth/modal/react'

const { connectTo } = useWeb3AuthConnect()

await connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.TWITTER,
})

```

```
import { AUTH_CONNECTION, WALLET_CONNECTORS } from '@web3auth/modal'
import { useWeb3AuthConnect } from '@web3auth/modal/vue'

const { connectTo } = useWeb3AuthConnect()

await connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.TWITTER,
})

```

```
import { AUTH_CONNECTION, WALLET_CONNECTORS } from '@web3auth/modal'

await web3auth.connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.TWITTER,
})

```

```
import { AUTH_CONNECTION, useWeb3AuthConnect } from '@web3auth/react-native-sdk'

const { connectTo } = useWeb3AuthConnect()

await connectTo({
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.TWITTER,
})

```

```
val response = web3Auth.connectTo(
  LoginParams(AuthConnection.TWITTER)
)

```

```
let response = try await web3Auth.connectTo(
    loginParams: LoginParams(authConnection: .TWITTER)
)

```

```
final response = await Web3AuthFlutter.login(
  LoginParams(loginProvider: Provider.twitter),
);

```

```
var options = new LoginParams
{
    loginProvider = Provider.TWITTER
};

web3Auth.login(options);

```

```
FWeb3AuthLoginParams LoginParams;
LoginParams.LoginProvider = TEXT("twitter");

UWeb3AuthSDK::GetInstance()->Login(LoginParams);

```

### Auth0 implicit flow

These examples use the Auth0 custom connection configured for your SDK. Replace the connection ID and domain with your Auth0 values. For Android and iOS, add the connection to `authConnectionConfig` during initialization. Flutter, Unity, and Unreal Engine currently use their platform's `loginConfig`; configure it by following the custom authentication guide for [Flutter](/embedded-wallets/sdk/flutter/advanced/custom-authentication), [Unity](/embedded-wallets/sdk/unity/advanced/custom-authentication), or [Unreal Engine](/embedded-wallets/sdk/unreal/advanced/custom-authentication).

- React
- Vue
- JavaScript
- React Native
- Android
- iOS
- Flutter
- Unity
- Unreal Engine

```
await connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<AUTH0_CONNECTION_ID>',
  extraLoginOptions: {
    connection: 'twitter',
  },
})

```

```
await connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<AUTH0_CONNECTION_ID>',
  extraLoginOptions: {
    connection: 'twitter',
  },
})

```

```
await web3auth.connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<AUTH0_CONNECTION_ID>',
  extraLoginOptions: {
    connection: 'twitter',
  },
})

```

```
await connectTo({
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<AUTH0_CONNECTION_ID>',
  extraLoginOptions: {
    connection: 'twitter',
  },
})

```

```
val response = web3Auth.connectTo(
  LoginParams(
    authConnection = AuthConnection.CUSTOM,
    authConnectionId = "<AUTH0_CONNECTION_ID>",
    extraLoginOptions = ExtraLoginOptions(
      domain = "https://<AUTH0_DOMAIN>",
      connection = "twitter"
    )
  )
)

```

```
let response = try await web3Auth.connectTo(
    loginParams: LoginParams(
        authConnection: .CUSTOM,
        authConnectionId: "<AUTH0_CONNECTION_ID>",
        extraLoginOptions: ExtraLoginOptions(
            domain: "https://<AUTH0_DOMAIN>",
            connection: "twitter"
        )
    )
)

```

```
final response = await Web3AuthFlutter.login(
  LoginParams(
    loginProvider: Provider.jwt,
    extraLoginOptions: ExtraLoginOptions(
      domain: 'https://<AUTH0_DOMAIN>',
      verifierIdField: 'sub',
      connection: 'twitter',
    ),
  ),
);

```

```
var options = new LoginParams
{
    loginProvider = Provider.JWT,
    extraLoginOptions = new ExtraLoginOptions
    {
        domain = "https://<AUTH0_DOMAIN>",
        verifierIdField = "sub",
        connection = "twitter"
    }
};

web3Auth.login(options);

```

The current Unreal Engine SDK documentation provides this flow through Blueprint configuration, not a verified C++ example. Configure the Auth0 connection by following the [Unreal Engine custom authentication guide](/embedded-wallets/sdk/unreal/advanced/custom-authentication).

### JWT flow

Obtain a fresh ID token from your identity aggregator or backend before calling Embedded Wallets. The token issuer and claims must match the custom connection in the dashboard.

- React
- Vue
- JavaScript
- React Native
- Android
- iOS
- Flutter
- Unity
- Unreal Engine
- Node.js

```
const idToken = await getIdToken()

await connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<CUSTOM_CONNECTION_ID>',
  idToken,
})

```

```
const idToken = await getIdToken()

await connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<CUSTOM_CONNECTION_ID>',
  idToken,
})

```

```
const idToken = await getIdToken()

await web3auth.connectTo(WALLET_CONNECTORS.AUTH, {
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<CUSTOM_CONNECTION_ID>',
  idToken,
})

```

```
const idToken = await getIdToken()

await connectTo({
  authConnection: AUTH_CONNECTION.CUSTOM,
  authConnectionId: '<CUSTOM_CONNECTION_ID>',
  idToken,
})

```

```
val response = web3Auth.connectTo(
  LoginParams(
    authConnection = AuthConnection.CUSTOM,
    authConnectionId = "<CUSTOM_CONNECTION_ID>",
    idToken = idToken
  )
)

```

```
let response = try await web3Auth.connectTo(
    loginParams: LoginParams(
        authConnection: .CUSTOM,
        authConnectionId: "<CUSTOM_CONNECTION_ID>",
        idToken: idToken
    )
)

```

```
final response = await Web3AuthFlutter.login(
  LoginParams(
    loginProvider: Provider.jwt,
    extraLoginOptions: ExtraLoginOptions(
      id_token: idToken,
    ),
  ),
);

```

```
var options = new LoginParams
{
    loginProvider = Provider.JWT,
    extraLoginOptions = new ExtraLoginOptions
    {
        id_token = idToken
    }
};

web3Auth.login(options);

```

The current Unreal Engine SDK documentation doesn't provide a verified C++ JWT example. Configure the JWT connection and login in Blueprint by following the [Unreal Engine custom authentication guide](/embedded-wallets/sdk/unreal/advanced/custom-authentication).

```
const result = await web3auth.connect({
  authConnectionId: '<CUSTOM_CONNECTION_ID>',
  idToken,
})

```
