Customize User Interface
Ory Kratos is an HTTP API server and does not include a traditional HTML user interface (rendering forms such as "Login" or "Registration") in its code base. We provide several reference UI implementations which you can use to get started quickly, or as the basis for your own UI:
- The Ory Cloud Managed UI is available when you run Ory Kratos in Ory Cloud.
- React Native Reference Implementation
- NodeJS Reference Implementation
- React / SPA Reference Implementation
Ory Kratos' HTTP APIs make it easy and straight forward to write your own UI (e.g. "login" screen, "update profile settings", ...) in any programming languages and framework! It can be built in any programming language including Java, Node, or Python and can be run both a server or an end-user device for example a browser, or a mobile phone. Implementing your own UI is simple and straight forward. There is no complex authentication mechanism required and no need to worry about possible attack vectors such as CSRF or Session Attacks since Ory Kratos provides the preventive measures built in.
Chapter Self-Service Flows contains further information on APIs and flows related to the SSUI, and build self-service applications.
UI Payloads
To make UI customization easy, Ory Kratos prepares all the necessary data for forms that need to be shown during e.g. login, registration:
{
id: "9b527900-2199-4221-9252-7971b3362282",
type: "browser",
expires_at: "2021-04-28T13:55:36.046466067Z",
issued_at: "2021-04-28T12:55:36.046466067Z",
ui: {
action: "https://playground.projects.oryapis.com/api/kratos/public/self-service/settings?flow=9b527900-2199-4221-9252-7971b3362282",
method: "POST",
nodes: [
{
type: "input",
group: "default",
attributes: {
node_type: "input",
name: "csrf_token",
type: "hidden",
value: "U3r/lgEfT8rA1Lg0Eeo06oGO8mX6T4TKoe/z7rbInhvYeacbRg0IW9zrqnpU1wmQJXKiekNzdLnypx5naHXoPg==",
required: true,
disabled: false,
},
messages: null,
meta: {},
},
{
type: "input",
group: "profile",
attributes: {
node_type: "input",
name: "traits.email",
type: "email",
value: "foo@ory.sh",
disabled: false,
},
messages: null,
meta: {
label: {
id: 1070002,
text: "E-Mail",
type: "info",
},
},
},
// ...
],
},
}
The above example would be rendered in HTML like this:
<form
method="POST"
action="https://playground.projects.oryapis.com/api/kratos/public/self-service/settings?flow=9b527900-2199-4221-9252-7971b3362282"
>
<!-- this is the first node -->
<input
type="hidden"
name="csrf_token"
value="U3r/lgEfT8rA1Lg0Eeo06oGO8mX6T4TKoe/z7rbInhvYeacbRg0IW9zrqnpU1wmQJXKiekNzdLnypx5naHXoPg=="
required
/>
<!-- this is the second node -->
<input type="email" name="traits.email" value="foo@ory.sh" />
<label for="traits.email">E-Mail</label>
</form>
As you can see, the JSON can be mapped almost 1:1 to HTML! This method makes it easy for you to implement complex forms without having to deal with state management, form validation, and more!
UI Node Groups
Nodes are grouped (using the group
key) based on the source that generated the node. Sources are the different methods such as
"password" ("Sign in/up with ID & password"), "oidc" (Social Sign In), "link" (Password reset and email verification), "profile"
("Update your profile") and the "default" group which typically contains the CSRF token.
You can use the node group to filter out items, re-arrange them, render them differently - up to you!
UI Node Types
UI Nodes can have several types!
UI Script Nodes
The script
node type is primarily used to load required scripts for WebAuthn!
{
"type": "script",
"group": "webauthn",
"attributes": {
"src": "http://localhost:4455/.well-known/ory/webauthn.js",
"async": true,
"referrerpolicy": "no-referrer",
"crossorigin": "anonymous",
"integrity": "sha512-E3ctShTQEYTkfWrjztRCbP77lN7L0jJC2IOd6j8vqUKslvqhX/Ho3QxlQJIeTI78krzAWUQlDXd9JQ0PZlKhzQ==",
"type": "text/javascript",
"id": "webauthn_script",
"node_type": "script"
},
"messages": [],
"meta": {}
}
Rendering it is straight forward if you are on the server-side:
For single-page apps, you might need a different set up to load the script asynchronously. In ReactJS you might want to do something like the following:
UI Anchor Nodes
Nodes of type a
are currently not used in Ory Kratos, but we have them around in case they are needed at a later stage!
UI Image Nodes
Nodes of type img
are used as QR codes, for example.
{
"type": "img",
"group": "totp",
"attributes": {
"src": "data:image/png;base64,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",

UI Text Nodes
Nodes of type text
are commonly used to display secrets (e.g. lookup secrets).
Their JSON usually contains a bit of contextual information.
- TOTP Example
- Lookup Secret Example
{

"group": "totp",

"id": 1050010,
"text": "These are your back up recovery codes. Please keep them in a safe place!",
"type": "info"
}
}
}
Rendering the text component is usually a bit more complex, as you most likely want a bit of custom formatting. By the way, you can find an overview of all message IDs used here in the conditionals at the end of this page! In handlebars, this could look as follows:
In ReactJS, you will most likely find similar if statements on the message IDs.
UI Input Nodes
The most common node type is the input
type. In general, it represents an HTL <input>
field:
{
"type": "input",
"group": "default",
"attributes": {
"name": "csrf_token",
"type": "hidden",
"node_type": "input",
"value": "U3r/lgEfT8rA1Lg0Eeo06oGO8mX6T4TKoe/z7rbInhvYeacbRg0IW9zrqnpU1wmQJXKiekNzdLnypx5naHXoPg==",
"required": true,
"disabled": false
},
"messages": null,
"meta": {}
}
An input
node itself has a type as well. These types are taken from HTML:
text
password
number
checkbox
hidden
email
submit
button
datetime-local
date
url
Checkbox Input Node
Checkboxes are primarily used when an Identity Schema field is of "type": "boolean"
. The following Identity Schema
{
$schema: "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
type: "object",
properties: {
traits: {
type: "object",
properties: {
// ...
tos: {
title: "Accept Terms of Service",
type: "boolean",
},
// ...
},
// ...
},
},
}
would result in such a checkbox node:
{
"type": "input",
"group": "profile",
"attributes": {
"name": "traits.tos",
"type": "checkbox",
"disabled": false,
"node_type": "input"
},
"messages": [],
"meta": {
"label": {
"id": 1070002,
"text": "Accept Terms of Service",
"type": "info"
}
}
}
When using plain HTML and not a single page app, the best option you have is to use two input fields - one hidden and one a
checkbox - with false
and true
respectively. Make sure that the checkbox input field is second as it needs to override the
hidden field, if set.
In single page apps, such as ReactJS, this trickery is not needed as you have full control over the form's state:
Button Input Node
Buttons are primarily used to trigger something, which is why it is important to have the onclick
attribute handled. If
onclick
exists, you will also find a script
node:
[
{
"type": "input",
"group": "webauthn",
"attributes": {
"name": "webauthn_register_trigger",
"type": "button",
"value": "",
"disabled": false,
"onclick": "window.__oryWebAuthnRegistration({\"publicKey\":{\"challenge\":\"SOaWrZE4unW3cC57ED52HRnHwd22Fcg8DNf0zf9Jgr0=\",\"rp\":{\"name\":\"Ory\",\"id\":\"localhost\"},\"user\":{\"name\":\"placeholder\",\"icon\":\"https://via.placeholder.com/128\",\"displayName\":\"placeholder\",\"id\":\"q7MFvGN9TzqDTIgEIvkjZw==\"},\"pubKeyCredParams\":[{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-7},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-35},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-36},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-257},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-258},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-259},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-37},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-38},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-39},{\"type\":\"public-key\",\"alg\":-8}],\"authenticatorSelection\":{\"requireResidentKey\":false,\"userVerification\":\"preferred\"},\"timeout\":60000}})",
"node_type": "input"
},
"messages": [],
"meta": {
"label": {
"id": 1050012,
"text": "Add security key",
"type": "info"
}
}
},
{
"type": "script",
"group": "webauthn",
"attributes": {
"src": "http://localhost:4455/.well-known/ory/webauthn.js",
"async": true,
"referrerpolicy": "no-referrer",
"crossorigin": "anonymous",
"integrity": "sha512-E3ctShTQEYTkfWrjztRCbP77lN7L0jJC2IOd6j8vqUKslvqhX/Ho3QxlQJIeTI78krzAWUQlDXd9JQ0PZlKhzQ==",
"type": "text/javascript",
"id": "webauthn_script",
"node_type": "script"
},
"messages": [],
"meta": {}
}
]
For example, when an end-user triggers a WebAuthn flow, the button would trigger the required JavaScript to get it working!
In a single page application, we need a bit of trickery as we are executing JavaScript from a JSON source in JavaScript - which
essentially means we need to execute eval
. Fortunately, this is only needed in this special case. If you do not use WebAuthn,
you will not need eval
at all!
Submit Input Node
Submit buttons trigger the form submission. In pure HTML, this is just a simple submit button:
If you have control over the form's payload, like in ReactJS, you need to ensure that the name of the form (e.g. method
) is only
submitted once with the correct value (e.g. password
). Because in some cases Ory Kratos might generate multiple submit buttons
with the same name
attribute.
[
{
type: "input",
group: "profile",
attributes: {
name: "method",
type: "submit",
value: "profile",
disabled: false,
node_type: "input",
},
messages: [],
meta: {
label: {
id: 1070003,
text: "Save",
type: "info",
},
},
},
// ...
{
type: "input",
group: "password",
attributes: {
name: "method",
type: "submit",
value: "password",
disabled: false,
node_type: "input",
},
messages: [],
meta: {
label: {
id: 1070003,
text: "Save",
type: "info",
},
},
},
]
You need to ensure that the correct value for the name
is submitted, or the user might end up updating their password instead of
their email address!
Hidden Input Node
Hidden input fields such as the csrf_token
{
type: "input",
group: "default",
attributes: {
name: "csrf_token",
type: "hidden",
value: "By8X7TPnn/NMtXeDpK6sbshISK3t1WnezAtlMnFA6ZPsxxNmRsG8ks7WpsHMQtTLbxtqKJOiu4aArJok6/GOSw==",
required: true,
disabled: false,
node_type: "input",
},
messages: [],
meta: {},
}
are easy to implement in both pure HTML
and single page apps like ReactJS
Default Input Node Rendering
You do not need to have one view for every node type. Instead, you can "fall back" to a default implementation. The most important
node types (hidden
, submit
, button
, checkbox
) we already covered!
Here are some examples for you to get a feeling for possible payloads!
- URL
- Number
- Text
{
"type": "input",
"group": "profile",
"attributes": {
"name": "traits.email",
"type": "email",
"value": "foo@ory.sh",
"disabled": false
},
"messages": null,
"meta": {
"label": {
"id": 1070002,
"text": "E-Mail",
"type": "info"
}
}
}
{
"type": "input",
"group": "profile",
"attributes": {
"name": "traits.website",
"type": "url",
"value": "https://www.ory.sh/",
"required": true,
"disabled": false,
"node_type": "input"
},
"messages": [],
"meta": {
"label": {
"id": 1070002,
"text": "Your website",
"type": "info"
}
}
}
{
"type": "input",
"group": "profile",
"attributes": {
"name": "traits.age",
"type": "number",
"disabled": false,
"node_type": "input"
},
"messages": [],
"meta": {
"label": {
"id": 1070002,
"text": "Age",
"type": "info"
}
}
}
{
"type": "input",
"group": "profile",
"attributes": {
"name": "traits.name",
"type": "text",
"disabled": false,
"node_type": "input"
},
"messages": [],
"meta": {
"label": {
"id": 1070002,
"text": "Name",
"type": "info"
}
}
}
You should render these components using a generic node input render logic like the one below:
Node Order and Labels
For all traits, the labels and orders are taken from the Identity Schema. An Identity Schema such as
{
"$id": "https://schemas.ory.sh/presets/kratos/quickstart/email-password/identity.schema.json",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"title": "Person",
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"traits": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"email": {
"type": "string",
"format": "email",
"title": "E-Mail",
"minLength": 3,
"ory.sh/kratos": {
"credentials": {
"password": {
"identifier": true
}
}
}
},
"website": {
"title": "Website",
"type": "string",
"format": "uri",
"minLength": 10
},
"consent": {
"title": "Consent",
"const": true
},
"newsletter": {
"title": "Newsletter",
"type": "boolean"
}
},
"required": ["email", "website"],
"additionalProperties": false
}
}
}
will generate the following fields - take note that the order of the JSON Schema affects the order of the nodes:
[
{
"type": "input",
"group": "profile",
"attributes": {
"name": "traits.email",
"type": "email",
"value": "foo@ory.sh",

},
"messages": null,
"meta": {
"label": {
"id": 1070002,
"text": "E-Mail",
"type": "info"
}
}
},
{
"type": "input",
"group": "profile",
"attributes": {

"type": "text",
"value": "Foo",

},
"messages": null,

}
}
},
{

},
"messages": null,

}
}
},
{

},
"messages": null,
"meta": {
"label": {

}
}

Generally, submit buttons are the last node in a group. If you wish to have more flexibility with regards to order or labeling the best option is to implement this in your UI using map, filter, and other JSON transformation functions.
Titles, Labels & Validation Messages
Ory Kratos helps users understand what is happening by providing messages that explain what went wrong or what needs to be done. Examples are "The provided credentials are invalid", "Missing property email" and similar.
Typically login, registration, settings, ... flows include such messages on different levels:
- At the root level, indicating that the message affects the whole request (e.g. request expired)
- At the method (password, oidc, profile) level, indicating that the message affects a specific method / form.
- At the field level, indicating that the message affects a form field (e.g. validation errors).
Each message has a layout of:
{
id: 1234,
// This ID will not change and can be used to translate the message or use your own message content.
text: "Some default text",
// A default text in english that you can display if you do not want to customize the message.
context: {},
// A JSON object which may contain additional fields such as `expires_at`. This is helpful if you want to craft your own messages.
}
The message ID is a 7-digit number (xyyzzzz
) where
x
is the message type which is either1
for an info message (e.g.1020000
),4
(e.g.4020000
) for an input validation error message, and5
(e.g.5020000
) for a generic error message.yy
is the module or flow this error references and can be:01
for login messages (e.g.1010000
)02
for logout messages (e.g.1020000
)03
for multi-factor authentication messages (e.g.1030000
)04
for registration messages (e.g.1040000
)05
for settings messages (e.g.1050000
)06
for account recovery messages (e.g.1060000
)07
for email/phone verification messages (e.g.1070000
)zzzz
is the message ID and typically starts at0001
. For example, message ID4070001
(4
for input validation error,07
for verification,0001
for the concrete message) is:The verification code has expired or was otherwise invalid. Please request another code.

UI Error Codes
When building a single page app, or a native app, Ory Kratos will respond with errors in some cases. You can find an exemplary error handling logic in our ReactJS reference implementation:
UI Message Codes
UI Messages are always presented as the following JSON
{
id: 1234, // A unique, fixed number
text: "...",
type: "...", // Usually "error" or "info"
context: {
// Additional, contextual information
},
}
for the values of these fields, please check the list below.
