Email Link Sign-in (Passwordless)

For a frictionless and secure login experience, we support passwordless authentication using secure email links (also known as Magic Links), powered by our authentication service.

Sign-in Sequence

  1. Enter Email: You submit your email address on our passwordless login page.
  2. Send Request: A request is sent securely to our authentication service.
  3. Cache Session: The system securely caches the email in your browser to verify session persistence.
  4. Verify Link: You click the link in your email, redirecting you back to our application.
  5. Complete Login: Our authentication service validates the link parameters, establishes your session, and signs you in.

Security Advantages

  • No Passwords to Remember: Eliminates password fatigue and prevents credential reuse vulnerabilities across different sites.
  • Built-in Email Verification: Successfully signing in via email link automatically verifies that you own the email address.
  • Secure Link Lifespan: Verification links are valid for a limited period and expire immediately after use, preventing session interception.

Key Requirements & Technical Details

AspectSpecification / Rule
Link LifespanLinks are valid for a limited period or until first successful verification.
Same Device ContextFor the best experience, click the link on the same browser/device that requested it. If clicked on a different device, you may be prompted to re-verify your email address during the redirect flow.
Spam PreventionRate limiting is enforced on link request endpoints to prevent spamming and abuse of email APIs.
