Connecting Social Accounts for Quick Login

This article explains how to connect your Google and LinkedIn accounts for a seamless single sign-on experience with EZmob. By linking these accounts, you can streamline your login process, reduce the need to remember multiple passwords, and enhance your security using OAuth 2.0.


Understanding OAuth 2.0


OAuth 2.0 is an industry-standard protocol that allows secure authorization from third-party applications without sharing passwords. It enhances user security by granting limited access to your account, ensuring that your credentials remain protected. Here are a few key benefits of OAuth 2.0:


  • Reduced Password Management: You won’t need to remember multiple passwords.
  • Improved Security: Minimal exposure of your credentials reduces the risk of breaches.
  • User Control: You can manage which applications have access to your information.


How to Connect Your Social Accounts


Connecting your social accounts to EZmob allows for faster login times and simplifies password management without compromising your advertising capabilities. Follow these steps to link your social account for single sign-on:


  1. Access Social Connections Settings: Navigate to your account settings by visiting Social Connections Settings.

Tip: Using social login can enhance security by leveraging OAuth 2.0, which reduces the risk of password-related breaches.


Real-World Examples


  • Forgotten Passwords: Users who frequently forget their passwords can benefit from social logins, as they eliminate the need to remember multiple credentials.
  • Account Management: Teams managing multiple advertising accounts can easily switch between them without the hassle of logging in and out repeatedly, streamlining collaboration.


Security Considerations and Troubleshooting


  • Data Access: EZmob only accesses basic profile information (such as your email address) to verify your identity. No personal data is used for advertising purposes.
  • Privacy: Your social account's privacy settings remain unaffected by this connection.
  • Disconnecting Accounts: You can disconnect your social accounts at any time by revisiting the social connections settings and clicking 'Disconnect'.


Warning: If you encounter issues connecting your account, ensure pop-up blockers are disabled and that you're not using a corporate account with restricted permissions. |||
