🔌 Nango: Get OAuth tokens for APIs. Fast & secure.

Pre-built OAuth flows & secure token management for 55+ APIs (and counting)

TL;DR

Pre-built OAuth flows & secure token management for 55+ APIs (and counting). 100% open source.

The problem: OAuth sucks.

OAuth is harder than it seems:

  • Every API has specific quirks & nuances - forcing you to read endless docs pages
  • OAuth libraries don’t solve redirects, adding callback endpoints, token storage, refresh logic etc.
  • When something goes wrong debugging is hard: Unspecific errors, non-compliant behaviours, missing details and a million possible root causes

On top of this, SOC 2 compliance & GDPR make storing plain-text tokens in your DB no longer a viable option.

The solution: Nango makes OAuth fast & secure.

Nango is a service that contains everything you need to work with APIs that use OAuth:

  • A full OAuth dance for 55+ APIs - no backend work needed
  • A tiny frontend SDK, with promises instead of confusing full-page redirects
  • Secure token storage, with automatic refresh as needed
  • Works with any API, programming language & framework

In your frontend easily trigger an OAuth flow with 1 line of code (full desktop & mobile support):

nango.auth('salesforce', '<user-id>'); // Opens a modal for OAuth dance

Then get always fresh access tokens in your backend:

let accessToken = nango.getToken('salesforce', '<user-id>'); // Refreshed & ready

That’s it.

Trusted in production, by startups and established companies
