Methods

verify

To invoke the hCaptcha API, you call the verify() method. Usually, this method corresponds to the user's selecting a UI element, such as a button, in your activity.

cordova.plugins.Hcaptcha.verify(onSuccess, onFailure, [args])

args parameters object

The following list contains configuration properties to allow customization of the hCaptcha verification flow.

parameter	type	default	description
siteKey	String		A site key from the hCaptcha dashboard, valid for any platform.
locale	String	AUTO	An ISO 639-1 language code to enforce a specific language.
loading	Boolean	true	Show or hide the loading dialog. Android only.
tokenExpiration	long	120	hCaptcha token expiration timeout in seconds.

onSuccess callback return values

• hCaptcha response token

When the hCaptcha API executes the onSuccess() method, the user has successfully completed the CAPTCHA challenge. However, this method only indicates that the user has solved the CAPTCHA correctly. You still need to validate the user's response token from your backend server.

To learn how to validate the user's response token, see Verify the User Response Server Side.

onFailure callback return values

• When challenge is dismissed: "hCaptcha failed: Challenge Closed(30)"
• When challenge expires: "hCaptcha failed: Session Timeout(15)"
• When error occurs: The relevant error description is returned.

Example

var onSuccess = function (strToken) {
   console.log(strToken);
};
var onFailure = function (strError) {
   console.warn(strError);
};
var args = {
   siteKey: 'YOUR_SITE_KEY',
   locale: 'es',
   loading: true,
   tokenExpiration: 120
};
cordova.plugins.Hcaptcha.verify(onSuccess, onFailure, args);

Remarks

• You must verify the generated tokens from the server side to complete the verification correctly.
• The hCaptcha params size and theme are not configurable since they are valid for the checkbox only.
• The plugin will not render the checkbox and instead jump directly to the CAPTCHA challenge.
• The plugin does not work on Android 4.4 because the SDK has dependencies not available in API 19.
• On cordova-android 9.X.X and earlier the plugin requires cordova-plugin-android-fragmentactivity.
