Social Logins

Catalyst enables you to allow your end users to log on to your application using popular Identity Providers (IdP) or Social Logins. You can configure and add social logins to your login element directly from the console.

Note: To enable Social Logins, you must first enable Public Signup

Catalyst offers support for you to implement the following social logins:

These social logins can be configured with Catalyst by utilizing the industry standard OAuth protocol, i.e., by configuring the Client ID and Client Secret for your Catalyst application provided by the IdP service.

Note: Catalyst offers you support to implement these social logins directly from the console in both its Native Catalyst Authentication types . However, should you wish to implement them while using Third Party Authentication , you will have to code the logic.

Benefits

  • Enabling your end-users to log in to your application using Social Logins aids them in accessing your application easily and quickly without compromising security. It provides them with a more streamlined login experience by eliminating password fatigue and making it more mobile-friendly.

  • Catalyst provides support to manage the backend requirements of implementing social logins in your login element. You can easily enable them once you set up the Client ID and Client Secret from your preferred Identity Providers (IdP).

  • You can configure a login element with Embedded Authentication that authenticates users using only Social Logins. This lets you authenticate users securely with minimal efforts.

  • You can enable and disable them per your preference directly from the console, with no additional coding.

  • By implementing Social Logins on your application you also reduce the chance for fake accounts.

ZAID

You will need your project’s ZAID when you input the redirect URLs while configuring social logins. You can fetch the ZAID value of your project from the Environments section section present in project settings from the Catalyst console. cloud_scale_authentication_zaid_highlight
