¶ Social Identity Source

Social identity source login refers to the process in which users use the identity authentication information of a third-party social platform to authenticate and log in to the current URL. Social login not only helps to simplify the user's login experience, but also provides users with a simpler and more convenient way to register and log in. In the GenAuth console (opens new window), there are currently nearly 20 types of social logins supported at home and abroad, such as personal WeChat, Tencent QQ, Facebook, Google, Twitter, etc.

¶ Social login association methods

Use the "Account association of identity source connection" function to allow your users to log in directly to existing accounts when logging in using the social identity source you configured.

When "Account identity association" is not enabled, a new user is created in the user pool by default when a user logs in through an identity source for the first time. After enabling "Account identity association", you can select the user's "Identity source account association method", allowing users to directly bind and log in to existing accounts through "field matching" or "ask binding".
