MDN’s new design is in Beta! A sneak peek: https://blog.mozilla.org/opendesign/mdns-new-design-beta/

RTCIdentityErrorEvent

This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage 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 specification changes.

The RTCIdentityErrorEvent interface represents an error associated with the identity provider (idP). This is usually for an RTCPeerConnection. Two events are sent with this type: idpassertionerror and idpvalidationerror.

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

Properties

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

RTCIdentityErrorEvent.idp Read only
Is a DOMString describing the domain name of the identity provider (idp) generating the error response.
RTCIdentityErrorEvent.loginUrl Read only
Is a DOMString giving the URL where the user can complete the authentication. It can be null and is provided by the identity provider (idp).
RTCIdentityErrorEvent.protocol Read only
Is a DOMString describing the Idp protocol in use.

Methods

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

Examples

pc.onidpassertionerror = function( ev ) {
                           alert("The idp named '" + 
                                 ev.idp + 
                                 "' encountered an error " +
                                 "while generating an assertion.");
                         }
