Portal links
Portal links are secure, time-limited URLs that provide users with direct access to specific actions within the Portafino Portal.
These links are generated through our API and contain all the necessary parameters and context for a particular escrow operation.
When a user clicks on a Portal link, they are taken to a dedicated page within the Portal where they can review the action details, complete authentication if needed, and approve or reject the proposed transaction.
Portal links serve as the bridge between your application and the Portal's secure action review system, ensuring that users can seamlessly transition from your platform to complete critical blockchain operations while maintaining security and providing a consistent user experience. Each link is unique to the specific action and user context, and includes built-in security measures to prevent unauthorized access or tampering.
The Portal to the user, should feel like a payment provider / checkout extension of your app.
