Unreal Engine SDK

The Openfort SDK for UE helps you integrate your game.

Installation​#

Since .uasset and .umap files are stored on Git Large File Storage, you must download and install git-lfs before cloning the repository.

1. Clone the openfort-unreal-sdk repository.
2. Copy the cloned repo into your project's Plugins folder, e.g.: MyGame/Plugins/openfort-unreal-sdk.
3. Restart your project (Unreal Editor & Jetbrains Rider IDE), upon restart it should load the unreal-sdk-plugin and should be good to use.

Setup#

Blueprint#

See the included sample widgets in All->Plugins->Openfort Content in the Unreal Editor content browser for examples of how to use the plugin in Blueprint. If you don't see a Plugins folder under All you may need to enable Show Plugin Content in the content browser's Settings menu.

C++#

Check out the OpenfortOpenfortSDK.h file for the C++ Identity API. In order to know the list of methods to call for the Identity Login Flow and the Identity Log out Flow, follow the same sequence of steps as the Blueprint widget examples below.

Quickstart#

Authentication with Openfort Auth#

We use the Device Code Authorization flow to authenticate and authorize users. To log in the user:

Call the Authenticate blueprint node. This will open the user's default browser and take them through the auth flow.

Log out of Openfort Auth#

To initiate the logout process, utilize the Logout node demonstrated below. Two logout options are available:

• Hard Logout: This option clears sessions from both the SDK (local) and the browser used for login. The SDK will open a browser to clear the browser session during the logout process.
• Soft Logout: If there is a desire to bypass opening the browser during the logout process, set the DoHardLogout parameter to false. This will perform only a local logout, and users will remain logged in to Identity in the browser until the session expires.
