How to use Passwordless, Database and Social connections in the same classic universal login page

Overview

This article clarifies whether it is possible to use the Classic Universal Login and have the following connections available for a user to choose from:

  • Passwordless
  • Database
  • Social

The Auth0.js/Lock libraries both provide functionality for Database and Passwordless logins, but it may not be clear how to incorporate both connection options into an application.

Applies To

  • Universal Login Page
  • Passwordless
  • Database
  • Social Connections

Solution

The following is a sample solution written with Auth0.js to render a login widget that provides a link to allow members to log in with a passwordless connection as well. This example can serve as a rough guideline for achieving this use case.

NOTE: This also works for embedded login implementations with Auth0.js.
