Before you continue with this tutorial, make sure that you have completed the previous tutorials. This tutorial assumes that:

• You have integrated Auth0.swift as a dependency in your project.
• You are familiar with presenting the login screen. To learn more, see the Login tutorial.
• You know how to renew a user's credentials with a Refresh Token. To learn more, see the User Sessions tutorial.

This tutorial shows you how to renew the user's credentials without presenting the user with the login page. Additionally, the guide shows you how to use Touch ID to validate the renewal.

This tutorial covers how to use the credentials manager utility in Auth0.swift to streamline the management of user credentials and Touch ID.

Import the Auth0 module:

Add a property to your class for the credentials manager:

Next, initialize the credentials manager in the appropriate init method of your class:

Present the login page. Add the offline_access scope to receive a refreshToken.

When the user logs in, the credentials object is encrypted and stored securely in the keychain.

To automatically renew the user's credentials, use the credentials method in the credentials manager.

The credentials manager retrieves stored credentials from the keychain and checks if the Access Token is still valid:

• If the current credentials are still valid, the credentials manager returns them
• If the Access Token has expired, the credentials manager renews them using the Refresh Token and returns them

Add the following:

After the line that initialized the credentials manager, add a line that enables Touch ID:

Next time you call the credentials method, the user will be prompted for their Touch ID with a "Touch to Authenticate" message.

If the user has logged out and you have cleared the credentials from the credentials manager, for example, with the following:

The user is still prompted for their touch ID. This returns an error in the credentials closure because there are no credentials to renew from.

The credentials manager has a hasValid() method that lets you know if there are valid credentials that can be returned directly or renewed and returned.

You can add this check before you call the credentials method:
