Welcome

Welcome to the Verida AI developer documentation!

Here, you’ll find everything you need to integrate Verida’s decentralized data platform into your application. Verida empowers developers and users alike with secure, user-owned data storage, identity management, and a suite of powerful APIs.

Why Build with Verida?

  • User-Owned Data: Allow your application to access user data, while keeping users in control of their data, enhancing privacy and trust.

  • Easy Data Access: With a single integration gain access to user data across many different platforms and data sources.

  • GDPR Compliant: Ensure compliance with GDPR, HIPAA and other data privacy regulations by only accessing user data on demand to drastically reduce your application's security overhead.

  • Flexible Integration: Use our JavaScript, TypeScript, or REST-based libraries for server or client-side applications.

  • Granular Permissions: Precisely control access with scopes, ensuring minimal data exposure.

  • Decentralized Identity: Seamlessly manage decentralized identities across applications.

  • Open Source: Work with open-source, community driven software.

Getting Started

  1. Developer Console: Open the developer console, an easy to use interface to generate authorization requests and use APIs.

  2. Check Your Scopes: Decide which data or APIs your application needs access to, and request only the necessary scopes.

  3. Implement Authentication: Set up a "Connect Verida" button in your application so users can grant you the required permissions.

  4. Use the APIs: Make calls to the Verida User APIs, providing your valid auth_token in the Authorization header.

  5. Explore Examples: Head to our code samples and tutorials to see best practices in action.
