Coinbase Wallet
You will learn the following:
- Use Coinbase Wallet to authenticate users with Web3
Before you start
Enabling Coinbase Wallet as a Web3 provider allows your users to sign in and sign up to your Clerk application with their Coinbase Wallet. Both Smart Wallet and the Coinbase Wallet browser extension are supported.
Enable Coinbase Wallet as a Web3 provider
- Navigate to the Clerk Dashboard.
- In the top navigation, select Configure. Then in the sidebar, select Web3.
- From the list of web3 providers, enable Coinbase Wallet.
Test authentication
The simplest way to test authentication is to visit your Clerk application's Account Portal, which is available for all Clerk applications out-of-the-box.
- In the sidebar of the Clerk Dashboard, select Account Portal.
- Next to the Sign-in URL, select Visit. The URL should resemble:
- For development –
https://your-domain.accounts.dev/sign-in
- For production –
https://accounts.your-domain.com/sign-in
- For development –
- On the sign-in page, you should see Coinbase Wallet as an option. Use it to sign in with your Coinbase Wallet.
Collect additional user information during sign-up
Web3 applications typically utilize a hexadecimal wallet address to identify users, which offers a high level of privacy. However, when bridging the gap between Web3 and Web2, it's often necessary to gather human-readable information about the user, such as their email address, phone number, or a username.
To collect additional information about your user during sign-up:
- Navigate to the Clerk Dashboard.
- In the top navigation, select Configure. Then in the sidebar, select Email, phone, username.
- On this page, toggle on attributes you wish to collect from your user during sign up. Select the settings cog icon next to an attribute to set it as Required. When set as Required, Clerk automatically prompts the user for this information after they authenticate with Coinbase Wallet.
Connect Coinbase Wallet to existing account
Users can connect their Coinbase Wallet to their account at any time through their user profile page. You can configure your application to use the Account Portal User Profile page or the prebuilt <UserProfile />
component.
