description: Use the useWaitToken hook to complete a wait token from a React component
---

We've added a new `useWaitToken` react hook that allows you to complete a wait token from a React component, using a Public Access Token.

```ts backend.ts
import { wait } from "@trigger.dev/sdk";

// Somewhere in your code, you'll need to create the token and then pass the token ID and the public token to the frontend
const token = await wait.createToken({
  timeout: "10m",
});

return {
  tokenId: token.id,
  publicToken: token.publicAccessToken, // An automatically generated public access token that expires in 1 hour
};
```

Now you can use the `useWaitToken` hook in your frontend code:

```tsx frontend.tsx
import { useWaitToken } from "@trigger.dev/react-hooks";

export function MyComponent({ publicToken, tokenId }: { publicToken: string; tokenId: string }) {
  const { complete } = useWaitToken(tokenId, {
    accessToken: publicToken,
  });

  return <button onClick={() => complete({ foo: "bar" })}>Complete</button>;
}
```
