The IdentityCredential interface of the Federated Credential Management API (FedCM) represents a user identity credential arising from a successful federated sign-in.

A successful navigator.credentials.get() call that includes an identity option fulfills with an IdentityCredential instance.

Inherits properties from its ancestor, Credential.

IdentityCredential.token Experimental

Returns a Promise that resolves with the Credential instance that matches the provided parameters.

Relying parties (RPs) can call navigator.credentials.get() with the identity option to make a request for users to sign in to the RP via an identity provider (IdP), using identity federation. A typical request would look like this:

async function signIn() {
  const identityCredential = await navigator.credentials.get({
    identity: {
      providers: [
        {
          configURL: "https://accounts.idp.example/config.json",
          clientId: "********",
          nonce: "******",
        },
      ],
    },
  });
}

If successful, this call will fulfill with an IdentityCredential instance. From this, you could return the IdentityCredential.token value, for example:

console.log(identityCredential.token);

Check out Federated Credential Management API (FedCM) for more details on how this works. This call will start off the sign-in flow described in FedCM sign-in flow.
