Pathfix allows you to easily add Apple identity (Login with Apple) for your end-user, handling authorization and enable communication between your app and Apple in just a few minutes.

Before proceeding, you must have enrolled in the Apple developer program. To enroll in the Apple developer program, go to [developer.apple.com/programs/enroll](https://developer.apple.com/programs/enroll/)


## Setup in Apple Developer Portal



### Create Application

- On the Apple Developer portal, go to **Certificates, Identifiers, & Profiles**.
- On the **Identifiers** tab, select the **(+)** button.
- On the **Register a New Identifier** page, choose **App IDs** and select **Continue**. (App IDs include one or more Service IDs.)
- On the **Register an App ID** page, add a description you want under **Description** and add the **Bundle ID** as per your domain (e.g. `auth.acmesaas.com`)
- Select **Sign in with Apple** from the capabilities list. Then select Continue

IMPORTANT: Make a note of your **App ID Prefix (Team ID)** from this step, you'll need to enter this in Pathfix under `Team ID`.

- Review the app registration information and select **Register**.
- Again, on the **Identifiers tab**, select the (+) button.
- On the **Register a New Identifie**r page, choose **Services IDs** and select Continue
- On the Register a Services ID page, provide a description and an identifier. The description is what will be shown to the user on the consent screen. The identifier will be your domain e.g. `com.acmesaas.auth`  
- Select **Configure**.
- On the pop-up window, set the **Primary App Id** to the App Id you created earlier. Specify your application's domain in the domain section. For the **Return URL**, use the URL `https://labs.pathfix.com/integrate/command`
- Review the service registration information and select Save.



### Generate Apple Keys

1. On the **Keys** tab in the Apple Developer portal, choose **Create a key** or select the **(+)** button.
2. On the **Register a New Key** page give the key a name, check the box next to **Sign in with Apple** and select **Configure**.
3. On the **Configure Key** page, link the key to the primary app ID you created previously and select **Save**.
4. Finish creating the key by confirming the information and selecting **Continue** and then reviewing the information and selecting **Register**.
5. On the **Download Your Key** page, download the key. It will download as a .p8 (PKCS#8) file - you'll use this Key in Pathfix

**Please note**: Once you have downloaded the Key, it will download in a .p8 format. You will need to open this file and reformat the key into a single line for use in Pathfix. .e.g:

- Sample p8 file data:

## Adding Integration To Your SaaS

Adding the SSO/Login functionality to the app is done based on your SaaS stack:

1. Code based platform using an extension: [Single Sign on (SSO) / Social login](docId:8ojvXce-GcPu6NI-OHuUY) 
2. No-code (Bubble) platform using our plugin: [Single Sign-on (SSO) Login](docId\:sUMKKrXP7QYvbsrOGpEvp)
