OneID API
OneID provides a single digital identity that doesn’t require a username or password to access it and claims to be safer than services that do. It provides its users with one-click sign in, quick fill forms, and instant checkout services. OneID is designed to protect user privacy and personal information. It does not share or even track users' online habits.
The OneID JavaScript API includes methods for creating or logging into OneID accounts and for accessing one's own information for uses such as filling in a form. Other API methods add buttons to a web page to perform these operations.

API Spotlight: OneId, Quandl, and Surveys with the SurveyMonkey API
Of the many APIs we published this week, eleven were highlighted on the blog by our team of writers. In this post, we’ll shine a spotlight on those eleven, which included the OneID API. OneID aims to end the problem that many people have with too many usernames and passwords. It does so by combing a users security keys into one big, encrypted "blob." Apparently this information is more secure than normal user authentication practices and is callable via the OneID API. Once a users information is in the blob, OneID authenticates a user when they are trying to log into a site by confirming three different digital signatures on different devices. To learn more about OneID functionality, visit the OneID site as well as the OneID API blog post.
