Logging in after using a custom Sign Up page

[tommyr]

Hi, I’m looking at creating a custom sign up page using the /dbconnections/signup API. (I have additional details about the user’s organization to collect that won’t be part of the user profile, and need to call a custom API.)

Is it possible to receive an access token from a signup done on a custom sign up page? Or does the user always need to re-authenticate?

Hi @tommyr,

Welcome to Community!

This is the best method I have seen so far:

Silent Auto-Login for User after Completing 'Authentication API'-Backed Custom Signup Form

Hey @Grant-Hoover! I’m chiming in with an alternative approach. What I would do is simply create the session for the user after the signup, without doing the resource owner password grant token exchange. E.g.: [HttpPost] public async Task<IActionResult> SignUp(NewUserData user) { // this is your process that calls Management API v2 // to create the user and any other necessary tasks var createUserResult = await CreateUser(user); // Everything's good, now go ahead and sign the user …

There is not currently a way to get an access token back from that endpoint, and not built in method to work around this.

If this is something you would like to request that can be done at our product feedback page.

Thanks,
Dan
