Integrate Authentication Providers¶
Your application’s users can create new accounts and log in using one or more of the built-in authentication providers. Every user of a Stitch application must be authenticated by at least one authentication provider before they can interact with Stitch. You can manage your application’s users and their data from the Stitch UI or Admin API and use information about the currently logged in user in rules and functions.
Email / Password Authentication¶
Authentication lets your application’s users interact with Stitch and associate data with their activity. Email/password authentication is a commonly used form of authentication where users enter their registered email address and password to identify themselves.
In the following example, we use the email/password authentication provider to register and authenticate user accounts. You can register a new user with your own credentials or use the following credentials to log in:
| Username: | joe.schmoe@company.com |
| Password: | SuperSecretPassword123 |
