RTCIdentityEvent

This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for the proper prefixes to use in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the spec changes.

The RTCIdentityEvent interface represents an identity assertion generated by an identity provider (idP). This is usually for an RTCPeerConnection. The only event sent with this type is identityresult..

Firefox implements this interface under the following name: RTCPeerConnectionIdentityEvent. It is likely that it will correct this name when it will unprefix RTCPeerConnection, once spec and implementation will have been stabilized.

Properties

A RTCIdentityEvent being an Event, this event also implements these properties.

RTCIdentityEvent.assertion Read only
Returns the DOMString containing a blob being the assertion generated.

Methods

A RTCIdentityEvent being an Event, this event also implements these properties.  There is no specific RTCIdentityEvent method.

Examples

                         alert("A new identity assertion (blob: '" + 
                               ev.assertion + 
                               "') has been generated.");
