Login with email and password#17

This is essential since we do not want personal Twitter accounts to be used to login and maintain Company roadmap and feature requests.

Nolt supports Twitter and passwordless logins. By clicking on “Get a one-time login link” on the login screen, you’ll receive a link via email that authenticates you.

We’re using a passwordless approach to keep your information more secure. Many users have the bad habit to reuse the same password over multiple websites. Passwordless authentication, by its nature, eliminates the problem of using an unsafe password.

Jitta, does the passwordless authentication meet your needs or is a password-based login indispensable for you?

Daniel, I am glad to see that you have your customer’s account security as a priority and have implemented a passwordless approach. And I believe this shouldn’t be forced but left to your customers to pick - between a password or a passwordless approach - similar to how a two-step auth system is optional.

We have some contributors who doesn”t have twitter and for who the passwordless approach (forcing to go back to email each time) is a pain

Seems it is not possible to use the boards from Microsoft Teams tab due to “one-time login link” approach :(

@Leo Grisogono I’m sorry I don’t get it. Could you please elaborate?

I was trying to include the board as a web page on a tab within one Microsoft Teams channel for my team. Normaly, with password login that would open a login page and after entering username and password, the page would be shown within Teams. However, in this case login page just sends the link in an e-mail and that link opens the board in a default browser. It is not a deal breaker, but it shows some drawbacks of the one- time login link method.

@Leo Grisogono Thanks for clarifying. You are right; it’s not the best user experience in that case. On the other hand, it’s just a one-time action as the login state is persisted across sessions (tested with the Web version of Microsoft Teams).

Another option would be to provide an additional verification code (e.g., 123456) in the email so that it could be copy-pasted into an input field. This approach also opens the possibility to receive the verification email on your mobile phone and then to enter the code on your desktop browser.

Yes, in web version of Teams it works, however we are using a desktop Teams application most of the time. Verification code would be good.

@Leo Grisogono Just a quick update: Login codes instead of links are now sent for authentication. That means, it should also work now with the Microsoft Teams app.

Great, thanks. Yes, it does work better with Teams now, although I would still prefer the username/password option to be available.
