Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have set up your Privy app and obtained your app ID from the Privy Dashboard.

​
Initializing Privy

In your project, import the PrivyProvider component and wrap your app with it. The PrivyProvider must wrap any component or page that will use the Privy React SDK, and it is generally recommended to render it as close to the root of your application as possible.

'use client';

import {PrivyProvider} from '@privy-io/react-auth';

export default function Providers({children}: {children: React.ReactNode}) {
  return (
    <PrivyProvider
      appId="your-privy-app-id"
      clientId="your-app-client-id"
      config={{
        // Create embedded wallets for users who don't have a wallet
        embeddedWallets: {
          ethereum: {
            createOnLogin: 'users-without-wallets'
          }
        }
      }}
    >
      {children}
    </PrivyProvider>
  );
}

​
Configuration

The PrivyProvider component accepts the following props:
​
appId
string
required
Your Privy App ID. You can find this in the Privy Dashboard.
​
clientId
string
(Optional) A client ID to be used for this app client. Learn more about app clients here.
​
config
Object
Configuration options for the Privy SDK.
For more information on the config object, look under React > Advanced for guides like customizing appearance for our UI components and configuring networks.

​
Waiting for Privy to be ready

When the PrivyProvider is first rendered on your page, the Privy SDK will initialize some state about the current user. This might include checking if the user has a wallet connected, refreshing expired auth tokens, fetching up-to-date user data, and more. It’s important to wait until the PrivyProvider has finished initializing before you consume Privy’s state and interfaces, to ensure that the state you consume is accurate and not stale. To determine whether the Privy SDK has fully initialized on your page, check the ready Boolean returned by the usePrivy hook. When ready is true, Privy has completed initialization, and your app can consume Privy’s state and interfaces. 
import {usePrivy} from '@privy-io/react-auth';

function YourComponent() {
  const {ready} = usePrivy();

  if (!ready) {
    return <div>Loading...</div>;
  }

  // Now it's safe to use other Privy hooks and state
  return <div>Privy is ready!</div>;
}
Using wallets? Use the ready indicator from the useWallets hook to wait for wallets to complete loading.
