使用此模块的一般程序是：
# 通过<kbd>amirequestsfor=$4</kbd>取得来自<kbd>[[Special:ApiHelp/query+authmanagerinfo|action=query&meta=authmanagerinfo]]</kbd>的可用字段，和来自<kbd>[[Special:ApiHelp/query+tokens|action=query&meta=tokens]]</kbd>的<kbd>$5</kbd>令牌。
# 向用户显示字段，并获得其提交内容。
# 发送至此模块，提供<var>$1returnurl</var>及任何相关字段。
# 在响应中检查<samp>status</samp>。
#* 如果您收到了<samp>PASS</samp>或<samp>FAIL</samp>，您已经完成。操作要么成功，要么不成功。
#* 如果您收到了<samp>UI</samp>，present the new fields to the user and obtain their submission. Then post to this module with <var>$1continue</var> and the relevant fields set, and repeat step 4.
#* 如果您收到了<samp>REDIRECT</samp>，direct the user to the <samp>redirecttarget</samp> and wait for the return to <var>$1returnurl</var>. Then post to this module with <var>$1continue</var> and any fields passed to the return URL, and repeat step 4.
#* 如果您收到了<samp>RESTART</samp>，that means the authentication worked but we don't have a linked user account. You might treat this as <samp>UI</samp> or as <samp>FAIL</samp>.
