Issue Integrating Session Key Plugin with Passkey-Based Smart Account Using Alchemy's Account Kit SDK

[Azeem-0]

Hello,

I’ve been working on integrating Alchemy's Account Kit SDK to create a seamless user experience for smart accounts on my platform. The goal is to enable passkey-based smart account creation and enhance these accounts by integrating the Session Key Plugin to minimize repetitive transaction signing during active user sessions.

What I’ve Achieved:

• Successfully implemented passkey-based smart account creation using Alchemy's SDK.

The Challenge:

• When attempting to integrate the Session Key Plugin into the same smart account, I encountered difficulties.
• I couldn’t find clear documentation or examples that demonstrate how to enhance an already-created smart account (using passkey's) with session key functionality.
• Specifically, I’m unsure how to:
  • Configure the session key plugin for an account that was created via passkeys.
  • Ensure that the session key plugin works seamlessly alongside the existing passkey-based authentication flow.

My Objective:
To enable a flow where:

• Users authenticate via passkeys to create or access their smart account.
• A session is established, during which repetitive transaction signing is minimized using the session key plugin.
  Request:
• Guidance on how to integrate the Session Key Plugin into a passkey-based smart account created using Alchemy's Account Kit SDK.

I appreciate your support and look forward to any insights you can provide!

Thank you,
Azeem

Hey @Azeem-0! Sharing some docs on session keys: https://www.alchemy.com/docs/wallets/smart-contracts/modular-account-v2/session-keys. You should be able to create a wallet just using passkey and call the installValidation method on the account to add a session key.

Are you looking to create passkey sessions? Where the user doesn't have to auth via faceID/touchID when sending txns while they're logged in via passkey? This is something we unfortunately do not yet support.
