External Login Authentication

This section houses everything you need to know about how to enable external login authentication to allow your members to log in to the Platform from an outside source like Google or Facebook.

Note: This feature is currently available for the Platform, Widgets, and Life Apps, but not the Portal.

For Platform login, you can set up external login authentication using any of the applications listed below. Just click the name of the application you're interested in adding to get started!

Sign-up & Sign-in Supported

Sign-in Supported

After you configure each external login authentication, you must recycle the app pool. Don't have access to your server? No problem! those with Setup Admin set to Yes on their User Record will have a Reset Auth App button on their User Profile. Click the Reset Auth App button to make the external login authentication option available - no server access required.

Important: We no longer support external authentication with X (formerly Twitter) or LinkedIn. If you previously configured these, they might still work. However, if you add or update their configurations, these may no longer work.

Individual User Setup

Users can set up and manage their external identities (social logins) in MinistryPlatform. In the Platform, go to Display Name > Edit User Account > Social Logins. See System & User Resources for step-by-step details.

MinistryPlatform stores these identities on the Identities tab of the User record.
