Force Social/Enterprise Login Providers to Show Login Screen

Use OIDC prompt parameter to force OAuth providers to show login screen.

The prompt="login" parameter which is defined in the OIDC spec can prompt Social/Enterprise Login Providers to always show their login screen. As a result, you can use the prompt="login" parameter to allow users to switch accounts when their previous authentication session on the provider is still stored.

In this post, you'll learn how to use prompt: "login" in Authgear SDKs to force OIDC providers to always show your users their login screen. You can also use prompt: "login" to allow users to switch accounts with a Social/Enterprise Login provider on the same device (or browser).

Authgear SDKs have a prompt parameter that you can set in your application. The value of the prompt parameter will be passed to the Social/Enterprise Login provider. Hence, if you set prompt: "login" in the SDK, your Social/Enterprise Login provider will receive a prompt="login" parameter. The following code examples show how to use the prompt parameter in Authgear SDKs.

authgear
  .startAuthentication({
    redirectURI: "<AUTHGEAR_REDIRECT_URI>",
    prompt: PromptOption.Login,
  })

AuthenticateOptions options = new AuthenticateOptions("<AUTHGEAR_REDIRECT_URI>");
List<PromptOption> promptOptions = Arrays.asList(PromptOption.LOGIN);
options.setPrompt(promptOptions);
mAuthgear.authenticate(options, new OnAuthenticateListener() {
    @Override
    public void onAuthenticated(@Nullable UserInfo userInfo) {
        
    }

    @Override
    public void onAuthenticationFailed(@NonNull Throwable throwable) {
        Log.d(TAG, throwable.toString());
    }
});
