Hi Apple Team,
Can we use SFSafariViewController to launch a 3rd party passkey authentication experience from a native iOS app?

While SFSafariViewController
supports using passkeys to sign in to websites, if you're trying to authenticate your own app via a web sign in (such as OAuth) you'll want to use ASWebAuthenticationSession
instead. This will show a managed instance of SFSafariViewController
, but also provides APIs for directly completing the authentication with your native code as well.

If you were trying to use SFSafariViewController
to avoid single-sign on, you can also consider setting prefersEphemeralWebBrowserSession on the session as well.
If you're working with SwiftUI there's a better API available via EnvironmentValues.webAuthenticationSession
