klaytn._kaikas
For developers' convenience, Kaikas provides 3 useful methods under
_kaikas namespace.klaytn._kaikas.isEnabled()
This method returns a
Boolean indicating if the current domain has access to user accounts. This is useful for determining whether the user has approved account access for the current session.klaytn._kaikas.isApproved()
This method returns a
Promise that resolves to a Boolean indicating if the current domain has a cached approval. This is useful for determining if an approval popup will show when klaytn.enable() is called, since it indicates if a past approval existsklaytn._kaikas.isUnlocked()
This method returns a
Promise that resolves to a Boolean indicating whether Kaikas is unlocked. Note that this does not indicate whether the user has approved account exposure.Last modified 2mo ago
