Authenticating with the Payments Wallet

When the wallet is not signed in (detected via

npx awal status

or when wallet operations fail with authentication errors), use the

npx awal

CLI to authenticate.

If you have access to email, you can authenticate the wallet yourself, otherwise you'll need to ask your human to give you an email address and to tell you the OTP code they receive.

Authentication Flow

Authentication uses a two-step email OTP process:

Step 1: Initiate login

bash

npx awal@latest auth login <email>

This sends a 6-digit verification code to the email and outputs a

flowId

.

Step 2: Verify OTP

bash

npx awal@latest auth verify <flowId> <otp>

Use the

flowId

from step 1 and the 6-digit code from the user's email to complete authentication. If you have the ability to access the user's email, you can read the OTP code, or you can ask your human for the code.

Checking Authentication Status

bash

npx awal@latest status

Displays wallet server health and authentication status including wallet address.

Example Session

bash

# Check current status
npx awal@latest status

# Start login (sends OTP to email)
npx awal@latest auth login user@example.com
# Output: flowId: abc123...

# After user receives code, verify
npx awal@latest auth verify abc123 123456

# Confirm authentication
npx awal@latest status
