Social login is a method of authentication that allows users to log in to an application using existing credentials from a social , such as Google or Facebook. As users frequently have their social credentials stored in their browser or device, social login provides a frictionless user experience that requires minimal manual interaction with an application.
User authentication is separate from connecting and authorizing applications for an external provider, allowing them to access external APIs on the user’s behalf. To learn more, read User authentication vs Connected Accounts.
Auth0 supports social login for both web-based and native applications. You can review the list of supported social identity providers on the Auth0 Marketplace or the :
  • The Auth0 Marketplace’s Social Login category provides information for each supported social connection. You can use the Add Integration button to launch the configuration process in your Auth0 tenant and the Installation tab to review implementation documentation.
  • From Auth0 Dashboard > Authentication > Social, select Create Connection to see a list of supported social identity providers. The Setup Guide has steps to configure the connection and links to relevant documentation from the social identity provider.
For a successful implementation, ensure you register developer keys for your selected provider. If a particular provider is not available, you can also configure custom social connections.
