Spawned Web3Auth Customize Guide: Step 3 - Integration & Configuration
This guide details the third step for customizing Web3Auth within your Spawned token project. We focus on the technical integration, connecting your frontend to the authentication layer, and configuring the initial connection flow for token holders. Proper setup here is vital for a smooth user experience from the first interaction.

The Problem
Traditional solutions are complex, time-consuming, and often require technical expertise.
The Solution
Spawned provides an AI-powered platform that makes building fast, simple, and accessible to everyone.
Why Integration is Your Critical Foundation
This step makes or breaks user access.
While designing the UI and defining login methods are important, the integration step is non-negotiable for functionality. This is where your token's frontend connects to the secure authentication backend provided by Spawned and Web3Auth. A faulty integration leads to failed logins, frustrated users, and lost token holders before they even begin.
For projects launched on Spawned, this integration is simplified because the core Web3Auth instance is pre-configured for the Solana ecosystem. Your main task is to embed it correctly and tailor the connection prompts. Skipping thorough testing here can undermine the 0.30% holder rewards system, as users who can't connect cannot participate in the revenue share.
The Developer's Dilemma: Build vs. Integrate
Many developer teams building a new token face a choice: spend weeks building a custom authentication system from scratch or integrate a proven solution. Building your own requires handling key management, social provider APIs, multi-chain support, and security audits—a massive time sink.
By using Spawned's integrated Web3Auth, you're choosing integration. This guide's Step 3 is about executing that choice efficiently. You trade potential development months for a few hours of configuration, allowing you to focus on your token's unique features and community building. This is especially valuable when your launch fee is only 0.1 SOL; you want resources spent on growth, not reinventing authentication wheels.
Step-by-Step: Integrating Web3Auth Client-Side
Follow these steps to integrate the Web3Auth client SDK into your project. Ensure your frontend environment (like React, Vue, or a static site from the Spawned AI builder) is ready.
Key Configuration for Spawned Token Projects
When integrating for a token launched on Spawned, pay close attention to these specific settings to align with the platform's features.
- Redirect URI: Must match exactly the URL registered in your Spawned project dashboard (e.g.,
https://yourtoken.com/callback). - Login Methods Order: Prioritize
'jwt'if you have a custom backend, followed by'google','twitter', and'discord'based on your community's primary platforms. - UI Theme: Use the
uiConfigto apply your token's brand colors. This creates a consistent experience from the Spawned launch page to your custom site. - Chain Configuration: For final mainnet launch, the chain ID must be set for Solana Mainnet. During testing with the AI website builder's preview, you may use devnet.
- Session Timeout: Consider a longer session duration (e.g., 7 days) to reduce friction for holders checking the 0.30% reward dashboard frequently.
Integration Effort: DIY Auth vs. Spawned + Web3Auth
| Aspect | DIY Authentication Stack | Spawned with Web3Auth (This Guide) |\n| :--- | :--- | :--- |\n| Development Time | 4-8 weeks for full stack | 4-8 hours for integration & config |\n| Security Audit Needed | Mandatory, costly | Inherits from Web3Auth's ongoing audits |\n| Multi-Wallet Support | Must code each adapter (Phantom, Solflare, etc.) | Included via Web3Auth's modal |\n| Social Login Maintenance | Manage API keys, quotas, updates | Handled by Web3Auth infrastructure |\n| Direct Cost | Developer salaries + infrastructure (~$5k+) | Included with Spawned launch (0.1 SOL fee) |\n| Alignment with Holder Rewards | Custom coding required to link auth to reward logic | Native connection to Spawned's 0.30% reward tracking |\n\nThe comparison shows that integration, while detailed, removes immense overhead. The saved development time can be redirected towards marketing your token or building game integrations, as seen in our guides for gaming tokens on Solana.
Troubleshooting Common Integration Issues
Problem: 'Client ID not found' error on initialization.\nSolution: Double-check the Client ID from your Spawned project dashboard. Ensure it's copied exactly and that the Web3Auth project is in 'Production' mode if your site is live.\n\nProblem: Users connect but get a zero balance or wrong wallet.\nSolution: Verify the chainConfig is set to 'solana' and the correct network. The provider must be fully initialized (await web3auth.initModal();) before connection attempts.\n\nProblem: Social login popup is blocked or fails.\nSolution: Ensure your Redirect URI is HTTPS and exactly matches the registered one. Test in a browser without strict popup blockers during development.\n\nProblem: UI theming isn't applying.\nSolution: The uiConfig must be passed during the Web3Auth instance creation, not after. Re-initialize with the correct config object.
Integrate, Test, and Prepare for Launch
You've now configured the core connection between your community and your token. This integration is the gateway through which holders will access rewards and participate in your ecosystem.\n\nAction Items:\n1. Complete the code integration in your development environment.\n2. Test the flow end-to-end: social login, wallet connection, and fetching a test balance.\n3. Once stable, deploy this integration to the live site built with your Spawned AI website builder.\n\nWith authentication handled, you can focus on the next stages of your project's growth. Explore our guides on how to effectively launch your gaming token on Solana to plan your next moves.\n\nReady to launch with this auth setup?

Frequently Asked Questions
This specific guide focuses on the Solana integration pre-configured for Spawned launches. While Web3Auth supports Ethereum, Base, and other EVM chains, the setup would require different chain configurations (`chainConfig`). If you are launching on another network, review the concepts here but consult Web3Auth's documentation for EVM-specific setup. Spawned's model, including the 0.30% creator revenue and holder rewards, is currently optimized for Solana.
The Web3Auth modal SDK is designed to be lightweight and loaded asynchronously. It should not create a noticeable performance impact on your site's initial load. The bundle is split, so most code loads only when a user triggers the login modal. This is important for maintaining a good user experience, which is vital for converting visitors into engaged token holders.
Your Web3Auth project and configuration are owned by you. When your token graduates from the Spawned launchpad (triggering the 1% perpetual fee), the authentication layer continues to function independently. Your users' login sessions and social connections are managed by Web3Auth, not Spawned, ensuring a smooth transition post-graduation without service interruption.
For basic social and wallet logins, no backend server is strictly required. The Web3Auth modal handles the client-side flow. However, if you want to implement custom JWT logins, verify users on-server for exclusive content, or securely link off-chain data to on-chain identities, you will need a backend. The initial integration in this guide can be done purely client-side.
The integration itself establishes the user's identity (their public key) in your application. This public key is the critical link. Your site can then use this key to query on-chain data or Spawned's APIs to fetch the user's token balance and display their accrued share of the 0.30% transaction rewards. The authentication step ensures only the actual holder can view their specific reward dashboard.
Yes, extensively. The `uiConfig` parameter allows you to set your primary color, background, button style, and logo. You can also control the wording of modal titles and buttons. This customization is highly recommended to provide a seamless brand experience from your Spawned launch page to your custom website, reinforcing token identity.
The most common error is incorrect initialization order. Developers often try to call `connect()` or fetch the provider before `initModal()` has fully completed. Always use `await` with `initModal()` and ensure the Promise resolves before proceeding to any connection logic. Testing the flow in a clean browser session will quickly reveal this issue.
