The All-In-One API

The future of Web3 development is here. The thirdweb API is a revolutionary unified interface that brings together every tool you need to build next-generation blockchain applications. From AI-powered smart contract interactions to seamless user authentication across 13+ providers, this isn't just an API—it's your gateway to building the decentralized applications of tomorrow.

🎯 One API, Infinite Possibilities

Imagine building Web3 applications with the simplicity of Web2. The thirdweb API makes this reality by providing a single, elegant interface to all the blockchain functionality you need. No more juggling multiple services, complex integrations, or fragmented workflows. Everything you need is unified, optimized, and ready to power your next breakthrough application.

🔐 Authentication Made Simple: Any Method, One Flow

Gone are the days of implementing dozens of authentication patterns. The thirdweb API revolutionizes user onboarding with a universal two-step authentication system that works with every modern authentication method:

🚀 Universal Authentication Flow

• One Initiation Endpoint (/v1/auth/initiate) for ALL methods
• One Completion Endpoint (/v1/auth/complete) for ALL methods
• 13+ OAuth Providers: Google, Apple, Discord, GitHub, X, Coinbase, Farcaster, and more
• Modern Methods: SMS, Email, Passkeys, SIWE (Sign-In with Ethereum)
• Custom Solutions: JWT tokens and custom authentication endpoints

The Power of Simplicity

// Initialize ANY authentication method
POST /v1/auth/initiate
{
  "method": "email" | "sms" | "oauth" | "passkey" | "siwe",
  // method-specific parameters
}

// Complete ANY authentication
POST /v1/auth/complete
{
  "method": "email",
  // completion data
}
// Result: User wallet + JWT token ready to use

No more complexity. No more confusion. Just authentication that works.
