mencargo Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Having a > 600 million Gmail and Google Apps userbase, it would be great if clients and staff could login using their Google account. Just my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Would be a good idea for clients, I believe we was talking about this in the Beta period and Paul, Cody and Tyson said they was interested in it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemoryX2 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I'm certainly interested in this. Great idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I believe we talked about this early on in development, and architected the login system to be able to support this later without too much trouble. Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Blesta be able to support this for the client side two and only uses the information it has on the registration form? So if I clicked on Facebook, It would import my full name, date of birth, email address, etc . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 It's certainly possible, but we have not implemented anything yet. I think that would be cool if you did do that in the future with the backend google oauth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedeu Industries LLC Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I also would love to see this feature included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 If we implement anything with OAUTH it'll work with any system that supports an OAUTH server (not just google). MemoryX2 and Michael 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mencargo Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Although I would consider it "nice to have" if the user could authenticate with Facebook or LinkedIn, for clients and staff we need an email in the account, so email providers would serve not only as authenticators but also to gather an active and trusted email address and link the account to that, so I would focus on Google, Gmail with > 600 M users and Google Apps with > 5 M companies. If you are planning to add it for any OAuth service provider, I would suggest then to have settings to allow or disallow each one from a list of providers supported. I would personally leave it only for Google and Hotmail, in that case, maybe Yahoo! when it gets to OAuth 2.0. Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would personally leave it only for Google and Hotmail, in that case, maybe Yahoo! when it gets to OAuth 2.0. In all likelihood it would be completely provider agnostic. You'd simply enter the authentication URL for each of the providers you wish to support, or perhaps check boxes from a set of supported (e.g. tested) ones.

lifehome Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Old thread, but any news on this? It's a real good solution to gather information from clients, without a hassle for them to fill in again all those info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a real good solution to gather information from clients, without a hassle for them to fill in again all those info. Thanks for pinging the feature. Nothing new on this, it is certainly possible to do but not many requests in the past year. Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samuel.hautcoeur Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 Signed up to the forums just for this one. I feel like any modern system should have that. Can it be developed as a plugin? Any developer interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
