BookAuth supports single sign-on (SSO) through Google and GitHub, allowing you to log in without a separate password.

Available SSO Options

Provider How to Connect
Google Settings > Security > Connected Accounts > Connect Google
GitHub Settings > Security > Connected Accounts > Connect GitHub
Email/Password Always available as fallback

Connecting an Account

  1. Navigate to Settings > Security > Connected Accounts
  2. Click "Connect" next to Google or GitHub
  3. Authorize BookAuth in the provider's login flow
  4. Your account is now linked

Benefits of SSO

  • Faster login — one-click sign-in
  • No password to remember — your provider handles authentication
  • Enhanced security — leverage Google/GitHub's 2FA
  • Multiple options — connect both providers and email/password

Disconnecting

  1. Navigate to Settings > Security > Connected Accounts
  2. Click "Disconnect" next to the provider
  3. Ensure you have at least one other login method (email/password or another SSO) before disconnecting

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I log in with both Google and GitHub?
A: Yes. Connect both and use whichever is convenient at login time.

Q: What happens if I change my Google email?
A: Your BookAuth account is linked to your Google account ID, not the email. The connection persists.
