Getting started

Install @raccoonai/tail-react package by executing the following command. 
npm install @raccoonai/tail-react
Below is an example of how to use the Tail SDK to authenticate and link a user.
TypeScript
import * as React from "react";
import { useTailSDK, LinkAppModal } from "@raccoonai/tail-react";

let RACCOON_SECRET_KEY = "<secret-key>"
let RACCOON_USER_PASSCODE = "<raccoon-passcode>"

export default function TailSDK() {
  const tailInstance = useTailSDK({
    secretKey: RACCOON_SECRET_KEY,
    callbacks: {
      onSuccess: (msg) => alert("Success:" + msg),
      onError: (err) => {
        alert("Error : " + err.message);
        console.error(err);
      },
    },
  });

  const [isOpen, setIsOpen] = React.useState(false);

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={() => setIsOpen(true)}>Link Uber</button>
      <button onClick={async () => await tailInstance.unlinkApp('uber', RACCOON_USER_PASSCODE)}>Unlink Uber</button>

      <LinkAppModal
        isModalVisible={isOpen}
        onCancel={() => setIsOpen(false)}
        tailInstance={tailInstance}
        raccoonPasscode={RACCOON_USER_PASSCODE}
        app="uber"
      />
    </div>
  );
}
You’ll need your secret key and user’s raccoon passcode to link apps. You can find them on secrets and users pages on the platform.

​
Usage

​
useTailSDK

The useTailSDK hook lets you instantiate and use the Tail SDK in your application. 
const tailInstance = useTailSDK({
   secretKey: RACCOON_SECRET_KEY,
   callbacks: {
     onSuccess: (msg) => alert("Success:" + msg),
     onError: (err) => {
       alert("Error : " + err.message);
       console.error(err);
     },
   },
});

​
LinkAppModal

The modal to display necessary information and start the app linking process. 
<LinkAppModal
   isModalVisible={isOpen}
   onCancel={() => setIsOpen(false)}
   tailInstance={tailInstance}
   raccoonPasscode={RACCOON_USER_PASSCODE}
   app="uber"
/>

​
getApps

This function returns a list of all the apps available for authentication for your organisation. 
const availableApps = await tailInstance.getApps()

​
getLinkedApps

This function returns a list of all the apps that are currently authenticated and linked for a user. You need to pass the raccoonPasscode of the user you want to check the linked apps for. 
const apps = await tailInstance.getLinkedApps(RACCOON_PASSCODE);

​
unlinkApp

The unlinkApp function in tailInstance unlinks the app for the provided Raccoon Passcode. It returns a boolean true if the unlinking is successful and false if it fails. 
await tailInstance.unlinkApp(RACCOON_PASSCODE);
