Sdk-test-dummy NPM

skyflow-js

Skyflow’s Javascript SDK can be used to securely collect, tokenize, and reveal sensitive data in the browser without exposing your front-end infrastructure to sensitive data.

Including Skyflow.js

Using script tag

<script src="https://js.skyflow.com/v1/index.js"></script>

Using npm

npm install skyflow-js

Initializing Skyflow.js

Use the init() method to initialize a Skyflow client as shown below.

import Skyflow from "skyflow-js" // If using script tag, this line is not required

const skyflowClient = Skyflow.init({
   vaultID: "string",          //Id of the vault that the client should connect to 
   vaultURL: "string",         //URL of the vault that the client should connect to
   getBearerToken: helperFunc  //helper function that retrieves a Skyflow bearer token from your backend
})

For the getBearerToken parameter, pass in a helper function that retrieves a Skyflow bearer token from your backend. This function will be invoked when the SDK needs to insert or retrieve data from the vault. A sample implementation is shown below:

For example, if the response of the consumer tokenAPI is in the below format

{
   "accessToken": string,
   "tokenType": string
}

then, your getBearerToken Implementation should be as below

getBearerToken: () => {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const Http = new XMLHttpRequest();

    Http.onreadystatechange = () => {
      if (Http.readyState == 4) {
        if (Http.status == 200) {
          const response = JSON.parse(Http.responseText);
          resolve(response.accessToken);
        } else {
          reject("Error occured");
        }
      }
    };

    Http.onerror = (error) => {
      reject("Error occured");
    };

    const url = "https://api.acmecorp.com/skyflowToken";
    Http.open("GET", url);
    Http.send();
  })

}

Securely collecting data client-side

Inserting data into the vault

To insert data into the vault from the browser, use the insert(records, options?) method of the Skyflow client. The records parameter takes a JSON object of the records to be inserted in the below format. The options parameter takes a dictionary of optional parameters for the insertion. See below:

var records = {
  "records": [
  	{
      table: "string", //table into which record should be inserted
      fields: {
        column1: "value", //column names should match vault column names
        //...additional fields here
      }
    }
    //...additional records here
  ]
}

var options = {
  tokens: true  //indicates whether or not tokens should be returned for the inserted data. Defaults to 'true'  
}

skyflowClient.insert(records, options={})

An example of an insert call:

skyflowClient.insert({
  "records": [
  {
    "table": "cards",
    "fields": {
      "cardNumber": "41111111111",
      "cvv": "123",
    }
  }]
});

The sample response:

{
  "records": [
    {
     "table": "cards",
     "fields":{
        "cardNumber": "f3907186-e7e2-466f-91e5-48e12c2bcbc1",
        "cvv": "1989cb56-63da-4482-a2df-1f74cd0dd1a5"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Using Skyflow Elements to collect data

Skyflow Elements provide developers with pre-built form elements to securely collect sensitive data client-side. These elements are hosted by Skyflow and injected into your web page as iframes. This reduces your PCI compliance scope by not exposing your front-end application to sensitive data. Follow the steps below to securely collect data with Skyflow Elements on your web page.

Step 1: Create a container

First create a container for the form elements using the container(Skyflow.ContainerType) method of the Skyflow client as show below:

const container = skyflowClient.container(Skyflow.ContainerType.COLLECT)

Step 2: Create a collect Element

A Skyflow collect Element is defined as shown below:

var collectElement =  {
   table: "string",             //the table this data belongs to
   column: "string",            //the column into which this data should be inserted
   type: Skyflow.ElementType,   //Skyflow.ElementType enum
   inputStyles: {},             //optional styles that should be applied to the form element
   labelStyles: {},             //optional styles that will be applied to the label of the collect element
   errorTextStyles:{},          //optional styles that will be applied to the errorText of the collect element
   label: "string",             //optional label for the form element
   placeholder: "string",       //optional placeholder for the form element
   altText: "string"            //optional string that acts as an initial value for the collect element
}

The table and column fields indicate which table and column in the vault the Element corresponds to. Note: Use dot delimited strings to specify columns nested inside JSON fields (e.g. address.street.line1).

The inputStyles field accepts a style object which consists of CSS properties that should be applied to the form element in the following states:

base: all other variants inherit from these styles
complete: applied when the Element has valid input
empty: applied when the Element has no input
focus: applied when the Element has focus
invalid: applied when the Element has invalid input

Styles are specified with JSS.

An example of a inputStyles object:

inputStyles:{
    base: {
      border: "1px solid #eae8ee",
      padding: "10px 16px",
      borderRadius: "4px",
      color: "#1d1d1d",
    },
    complete: {
      color: "#4caf50",
    },
    empty: {},
    focus: {},
    invalid: {
      color: "#f44336",
    },
  }
}

The states that are available for labelStyles are base and focus.

An example of a labelStyles object:

labelStyles: {
    base: {
      fontSize: "12px",
      fontWeight: "bold"
    },
    focus: {
      color: "#1d1d1d"
    }
}

The state that is available for errorTextStyles is only the base state, it shows up when there is some error in the collect element.

An example of a errorTextStyles object:

errorTextStyles: {
    base: {
      color: "#f44336"
    }
}

Finally, the type field takes a Skyflow ElementType. Each type applies the appropriate regex and validations to the form element. There are currently 4 types:

CARDHOLDER_NAME
CARD_NUMBER
EXPIRATION_DATE
CVV

Once the Element object has been defined, add it to the container using the create(element, options) method as shown below. The element param takes a Skyflow Element object as defined above and the options parameter takes a dictionary of optional parameters as described below:

var collectElement =  {
   table: "string",             //the table this data belongs to
   column: "string",            //the column into which this data should be inserted
   type: Skyflow.ElementType,   //Skyflow.ElementType enum
   inputStyles: {},             //optional styles that should be applied to the form element
   labelStyles: {},             //optional styles that will be applied to the label of the collect element
   errorTextStyles:{},          //optional styles that will be applied to the errorText of the collect element
   label: "string",             //optional label for the form element
   placeholder: "string",       //optional placeholder for the form element
   altText: "string"            //optional string that acts as an initial value for the collect element
}

var options = {
  required: false  //indicates whether the field is marked as required. Defaults to 'false'
}

const element = container.create(collectElement, options)

Step 3: Mount Elements to the DOM

To specify where the Elements will be rendered on your page, create placeholder <div> elements with unique id tags. For instance, the form below has 4 empty divs with unique ids as placeholders for 4 Skyflow Elements.

<form>
  <div id="cardNumber"/>
  <br/>
  <div id="expireDate"/>
  <br/> 
  <div id="cvv"/>
  <br/>
  <div id="pin"/>
  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

Now, when the mount(domElement) method of the Element is called, the Element will be inserted in the specified div. For instance, the call below will insert the Element into the div with the id "#cardNumber".

element.mount("#cardNumber")

Step 4: Collect data from Elements

When the form is ready to be submitted, call the collect(options?) method on the container object. The options parameter takes a dictionary of optional parameters as shown below:

tokens: indicates whether tokens for the collected data should be returned or not. Defaults to 'true'
additionalFields: Non-PCI elements data to be inserted into the vault which should be in the records object format as described in the above Inserting data into vault section.

var options = {
  tokens: true  //optional, indicates whether tokens for the collected data should be returned. Defaults to 'true'
  additionalFields: {  
    records: [
      {
        table: "string", //table into which record should be inserted
        fields: {
          column1: "value", //column names should match vault column names
          //...additional fields here
        }
      }
      //...additional records here
    ]
  } //optional
}

container.collect(options={})

End to end example of collecting data with Skyflow Elements

Sample Code:

//Step 1
const container = skyflowClient.container(Skyflow.ContainerType.COLLECT) 

//Step 2
const element = container.create({           
  table: "cards",
  column: "cardNumber",
  inputstyles: {
      base: {
        color: "#1d1d1d",
      },
  },
  labelStyles: {
      base: {
        fontSize: "12px",
        fontWeight: "bold"
      }
  },
  errorTextStyles: {
      base: {
        color: "#f44336"
      }
  },
  placeholder: "Card Number",
  label: "card_number",
  type: Skyflow.ElementType.CARD_NUMBER
})

// Step 3
element.mount("#cardNumber")  //assumes there is a div with id="#cardNumber" in the webpage

// Step 4

const nonPCIRecords = {
    "records": [
      {
        "table": "cards",
        "fields": {
          "gender": "MALE"
        }
      }
    ]
  }

container.collect({
  tokens: true,
  additionalFields: nonPCIRecords
})

Sample Response :

{
  "records": [
    {
      "table": "cards",
      "fields": {
        "cardNumber": "f3907186-e7e2-466f-91e5-48e12c2bcbc1",
        "gender": "12f670af-6c7d-4837-83fb-30365fbc0b1e"
      }
    }
  ]
}

Securely revealing data client-side

Retrieving data from the vault

For non-PCI use-cases, retrieving data from the vault and revealing it in the browser can be done either using the SkyflowID's or tokens as described below

Using Skyflow tokens
For retrieving using tokens, use the detokenize(records) method. The records parameter takes a JSON object that contains records to be fetched as shown below.

var records = {
  "records": [
      {
        token: "string",                    // token for the record to be fetched
        redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType    //redaction to be applied to retrieved data
      }
  ]
}

skyflow.detokenize(records)

There are 4 accepted values in Skyflow.RedactionTypes:

PLAIN_TEXT
MASKED
REDACTED
DEFAULT

An example of a get call:

skyflow.detokenize({
  "records": [
    {
      token: "131e70dc-6f76-4319-bdd3-96281e051051",
      redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType.PLAIN_TEXT
    }
  ]
})

The sample response:

{
  "records": [
    {
      "token": "131e70dc-6f76-4319-bdd3-96281e051051",
      "date_of_birth": "1990-01-01",
    }
  ]
}

Using Skyflow ID's
For retrieving using SkyflowID's, use the getById(records) method.The records parameter takes a JSON object that contains records to be fetched as shown below.

{
  "records": [
    {
      ids: string[],                      // array of SkyflowID's of the records to be fetched
      table: string                       // table holding the above skyflow_id's
      redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType    // redaction to be applied to retrieved data
    }
  ]
}

An example of getById call:

skyflow.getById({
  records: [
    {
      ids: ["f8d8a622-b557-4c6b-a12c-c5ebe0b0bfd9"],
      table: "cards",
      redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType.PLAIN_TEXT,
    },
    {
      ids: ["da26de53-95d5-4bdb-99db-8d8c66a35ff9"],
      table: "contacts",
      redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType.PLAIN_TEXT,
    },
  ],
});

The sample response:

{
    "records": [
        {
            "fields": {
                "card_number": "4111111111111111",
                "cvv": "127",
                "expiry_date": "11/2035",
                "fullname": "myname",
                "id": "f8d8a622-b557-4c6b-a12c-c5ebe0b0bfd9"
            },
            "table": "cards"
        }
    ],
    "errors": [
        {
            "error": {
                "code": "404",
                "description": "No Records Found"
            },
            "ids": ["da26de53-95d5-4bdb-99db-8d8c66a35ff9"]
        }
    ]
}

Using Skyflow Elements to reveal data

Skyflow Elements can be used to securely reveal data in a browser without exposing your front end to the sensitive data. This is great for use cases like card issuance where you may want to reveal the card number to a user without increasing your PCI compliance scope.

Step 1: Create a container

To start, create a container using the container(Skyflow.ContainerType) method of the Skyflow client as shown below.

const container = skyflowClient.container(Skyflow.ContainerType.REVEAL)

Step 2: Create a reveal Element

Then define a Skyflow Element to reveal data as shown below.

var revealElement = {
  token: "string",                    //token of the data being revealed 
  redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType,   //redaction type to be applied to the data when revealed
  inputStyles: {},                    //optional styles to be applied to the element
  labelStyles: {},                    //optional, styles to be applied to the label of the reveal element
  errorTextStyles: {},                //optional styles that will be applied to the errorText of the reveal element
  label: "string",                     //label for the form element
  altText: "string"                   //optional, string that is shown before reveal, will show token if altText is not provided
}

For a list of acceptable RedactionTypes, see the section above.

The inputStyles, labelStyles and errorTextStyles parameters accepts a styles object as described in the previous section for collecting data but only a single variant is available i.e. base.

An example of a inputStyles object:

inputStyles: {
    base: {
      color: "#1d1d1d"
    }
}

An example of a labelStyles object:

labelStyles: {
    base: {
      fontSize: "12px",
      fontWeight: "bold"
    }
}

An example of a errorTextStyles object:

errorTextStyles: {
    base: {
      color: "#f44336"
    }
}

Once you've defined a Skyflow Element, you can use the create(element) method of the container to create the Element as shown below:

const element = container.create(revealElement, options={})

Step 3: Mount Elements to the DOM

Elements used for revealing data are mounted to the DOM the same way as Elements used for collecting data. Refer to Step 3 of the section above.

Step 4: Reveal data

When the sensitive data is ready to be retrieved and revealed, call the reveal() method on the container as shown below:

container.reveal()
  .then((data) => {
    //handle success
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    //handle error
  })

End to end example of all steps

//Step 1
const container = skyflowClient.container(Skyflow.ContainerType.REVEAL)

//Step 2
const cardNumberElement = container.create({             
  token: "b63ec4e0-bbad-4e43-96e6-6bd50f483f75",
  redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType.DEFAULT,
  inputStyles: {
      base: {
        color: "#1d1d1d",
      },
  },
  labelStyles: {
    base: {
      fontSize: "12px",
    }
  },
  errorTextStyles: {
    base: {
      color: "#f44336"
    }
  }, 
  label: "card_number",
  altText: "XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX" 
})

const cvvElement = container.create({             
  token: "89024714-6a26-4256-b9d4-55ad69aa4047",
  redaction: Skyflow.RedactionType.DEFAULT,
  inputStyles: {
      base: {
        color: "#1d1d1d",
      },
    },
  label: "cvv",
  altText: "XXX" 
})

//Step 3
cardNumberElement.mount("#cardNumber")  //assumes there is a placeholder div with id="#cardNumber" on the page
cvvElement.mount("#cvv")  //assumes there is a placeholder div with id="#cvv" on the page
                                        
//Step 4    
container                                       
 .reveal()                              
 .then((data) => {
   //handle success
 })
 .catch((err) => {
   //handle error
 });

The response below shows that some tokens assigned to the reveal elements get revealed successfully, while others fail and remain unrevealed.

Sample Response

{
  "success": [
    {
      "token": "b63ec4e0-bbad-4e43-96e6-6bd50f483f75"
    }
  ],
 "errors": [
    {
       "token": "89024714-6a26-4256-b9d4-55ad69aa4047",
       "error": {
         "code": 404,
         "description": "Tokens not found for 89024714-6a26-4256-b9d4-55ad69aa4047"
       } 
   }   
  ]
