Here we will show how to link a third-party authentication provider, such as Google, to your Servermall Cloud account. After connecting Google sign-in, you will not need to enter your email and password each time you log in to the Servermall Cloud Control Panel if you are already signed in to Google.
Prerequisites
- You must have a registered Servermall Cloud account. How to register an account is described in the guide: “Creating an Account”.
- You must have a Google account that is not linked to a Servermall Cloud account.
- Your Servermall Cloud account must not already have a Google account linked. How to unlink a third-party authentication provider is described in the guide: “Unlinking Authentication Provider”.
Linking Google as an Authentication Provider
- Sign in to the Servermall Cloud Control Panel. How to sign in to your account is described in the guide: “Signing in to the Control Panel”. If your account uses two-factor authentication (2FA), the sign-in procedure is described in the guide: “Signing in to the Control Panel Using 2FA”.
- Click your avatar or profile name (“user” if the profile is not filled in) in the top-right corner of the Servermall Cloud Control Panel.
The account drop-down menu will open. - Select “Security Settings” in the drop-down menu.
The “Security Settings” page will open. - Go to the “Linked Accounts” tab.
- Click the “Sign in with Google” button.
The account selection window will open. - Select the account you want to link.
A window to confirm account linking will open. - Click the “Continue” button.
If the Google account is linked successfully, a message will appear: “Success! Your account is now linked with your Google account”, and a row for the added authentication provider will be shown.
From this moment, you can sign in to the Servermall Cloud Control Panel using your Google account for authentication.
