When asking for help in this category, please make sure to provide the following details:

- SDK Version: 7.1.2
- Platform: android (mobile web)

When using v5 OpenloginAdapter with uxMode as “redirect” then I got url like below `https://app-redirecturl/#result=[base64strings]`.  
So I could get private key from result hash data.

But when using v7 OpenloginAdapter I got url like below `https://app-redirecturl/#sessionId=[sessionid]&sessionNamespace=`

Is there an option in v7 to get the URL like in v5?  
or how do I get private key using the sessionId?

Hey @samuel  
This is not the way we usually recommended users to get the private key, please have a look at our examples to request for a private key upon login. Linking it [here](https://github.com/Web3Auth/web3auth-pnp-examples/blob/8973c99c4bbaf817280da8bff186cfb8879de650/web-no-modal-sdk/blockchain-connection-examples/evm-no-modal-example/src/ethersRPC.ts#L126-L136).

Hey @samuel,  
We always strive towards the improvement of security and robusticity of the product. While we appreciate the work-around that you had devised but unfortunately, it’s best for the product and the users that private key is not accessible without authentication.  
Clearing your doubts on the above, I would like to bring your attention to our Lookup API / Pre-generation API which will launch within a few weeks, which will allow you to pre-determine the wallet address without logging in. Will keep you posted once it’s launched.
