Authgear makes it easy to add user authentication and authorization to any application. In this guide, we'll show you how to get started with Authgear in 5 minutes.
After you sign up, you'll see the onboarding screen that will guide you through the process of creating your first Authgear project.
An Authgear project is similar to a container that holds all your users, settings, and client applications. You need an Authgear project before you can start signing users up.
You can create multiple projects under one account based on your needs. When you create multiple projects, each project is isolated from the others. For example, you can create Project 1 for your e-commerce business and Project 2 for a fitness club you organize. Project 1 and Project 2 will not share the same users or settings.
To create an additional project, log in to your Authgear account then click on the "Create Project" button.
Before any integration, you can try out the signup flow for your project from the "Getting Started" page.
You should be greeted with the AuthUI Login/Sign-up page. Use the form to create a new user account under your project.
After logging in from the previous step, you can check out the Pre-Built User Settings Page. This page is the default page where users of your project can edit their profile and manage security settings.
Click on the Edit Profile to edit and view profile attributes such as first name, last name, photo, etc.
Users can manage the identities (email address, phone number, or social media account) linked to their account under the My Account section of the User Settings page.
The Security section of the User Settings page has the following options:
Password: users can change their password from here.
2-step verification: users can click on this option to view and manage 2-step authenticators for their account. The option is only available when you enable 2FA for your project in Authgear Portal > Authentication > 2FA.
Signed-in device: from this page, the user can view browsers and devices that their account is currently signed in on.
To get more from Authgear and use Authgear to add user authentication to your web or mobile application, you should integrate Authgear to your application or website.
Authgear offers multiple options for viewing and managing all users who sign up for your project. These options include:
Authgear Portal
The quickest way to manage your users is from the Authgear Portal. To open the user management page in the Authgear Portal, click on the User Management link in the navigation bar on the left side.
Click on Users to view a list of all the users in your project. Click on a user from the list to view their complete profile and perform administrative operations like modify profile details, suspend/unsuspend user, delete account, etc.
You can also add new users to your project from the User Management page. To do that, click on the Create User button on the right.
Continue to navigate around the Authgear Portal to see all the features and settings available for your project.
