Use user registration as default for Login

Hi there

We are using the universal login experience. Therefore, we want to change the initial screen from member login to registration (new user). With coding it is possible to change the starting dialog but what about this standard feature, is there any possibility?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @markus.schumacher,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

I understand that you would like to have your users land on the signup page instead of the default login page.

If you are using the New Universal Login Experience, you could specify the screen_hint=signup parameter in your /authorize request to show the signup page when the user accesses your application.

For example:

https://YOUR_DOMAIN/authorize?
    response_type=code&
    client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&
    redirect_uri=https://YOUR_APP/callback&
    scope=SCOPE&
    audience=API_AUDIENCE&
    state=STATE&
    screen_hint=signup

See here to learn more.

On the contrary, if you are using the Classic Universal Login experience, you will not be able to make your users land on the signup page instead of the login page. When using the Classic Universal Login experience, users will always land on the login page first.

Hoped this helps!

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

Hi @rueben.tiow

Thank you for the answer. For me it s not clear yet where I can find the /authorize request to make the change. Is it in Auth0 or on the website. Just to give another information: The function “Customize Login Page” is not active.

Best,
Markus
