# Validate Intent

Once the OAuth flow is completed, the user will be redirected to the success or failure url.

The success url will contain 2 query parameters `intentId` and `intentToken`.

In order to validate the intent created in [previous](/api-tutorials/social-media-flows/create-intent) step, we need to call the following endpoint

```json
curl --request POST \
  --url https://dev-iam.razi.ai/v1/authentication/idp/intents/validate \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'X-App-Name: ' \
  --data '{
  "intentId": "163840776835432705",
  "idpToken": "JtERDtsWJPHHvkb0RWT3t_xu3KQimKbPdWzgYWJd26z3Rw"
}'
```

The above API implements below flow in backend:

```mermaid

  B[Validate Intent] --> C{Check Intent}
  C -- Valid --> D{Check User Exists by email}
  C -- Invalid --> E[Throw Error]
  D -- Yes --> F[Link user to idp]
  D -- No --> G[Create User]
  F ----> H[Create Session]
  G ----> H[Create Session]

```
