Summary

Used to manually refresh the user state at any point in time, for example if you have multiple separate windows (things like a Chrome extension popup and a Chrome page for the same extension) where Dynamic is active and you want to ensure they are all in sync. The SDK state as a whole will be maintained i.e. the sdkHasLoaded boolean on useDynamicContext will stay true. If you want to reset the whole SDK including wallets, then take a look at useReinitialize.

​
Usage

import {
  DynamicContextProvider,
  useRefreshUser,
} from '@dynamic-labs/sdk-react-core';

const RefreshButton = () => {
  const refresh = useRefreshUser();

  return (
    <button onClick={refresh}>Reinitialize</button>
  );
}

const App = () => {
  return (
    <DynamicContextProvider>
      <RefreshButton />
    </DynamicContextProvider>
  )
}

FAQs

What does an error response look like?
  • Generic Error with the message: “useRefreshUser resulted in an invalid user: no verified credentials found”
When exectly is the JWT updated?
  • The JWT is only updated on success. On failure, nothing is mutated, so the existing JWT remains as-is (still usable until it actually expires)
Is there a client-side rate limit?
  • No, there’s no client-side limit, so it would come down to general rate limits at that point.
