Authentication Node

The Norway Authentication node authenticates users through BankId, allowing them to securely log in using their bank credentials. This node presents an input field with a BankId button that initiates the authentication flow, enabling Norwegian users to verify their identity through their financial institution.

Use Case

Use the Norway Authentication node when:

• You need to authenticate users in Norway using BankId.
• You want to provide a secure login method that leverages users' existing bank credentials.
• You require users to verify their identity through their financial institution before proceeding in the flow.
• You want to ensure compliance with Norwegian authentication standards for user verification.

Don't use the Norway Authentication node when:

• You are targeting users outside of Norway or using authentication methods other than BankId.
• You need a non-visual authentication method; consider using the Silent Authentication node instead.

UI Examples

Behavior

• Blocking: the node waits for the user to be authenticated via BankId
• Requires user input: user must click the BankId button and complete the authentication flow
• Produces output: creates multiple output properties based on user account details from BankId
• Supports validation: can be marked as required/optional
• Moves to the next node after BankId authentication is confirmed
