Admins can control which sign-in methods are available to your Dash users. Turning a method off removes it from the login page immediately.
This allows you to set an account-level default for your users to authenticate when accessing your Dash (for example, you can enforce your users to use SSO via Google or Microsoft).
Available sign-in methods
You can enable or disable the following options:
Email & password
Users sign in using an email address and a password stored in Dash.Google
Users sign in with their Google account.Microsoft
Users sign in with their Microsoft account.
👉 At least one sign-in method must remain enabled.
What happens when you disable a sign-in method?
Disabling a method does not delete user accounts. It only affects how users authenticate next time they log in.
👉 All existing user data, such as collections and asset uploader information will be retained.
What if a user tries to log in using a method that is no longer enabled?
In this situation, they’ll be prompted to use one of the now-allowed sign-in options instead.
What happens next depends on which method they originally used:
A user signed up with "Email & password", but it's now disabled
A user (i.e. name@company.com) created their Dash account using their email and a password, however "Email & password" is disabled. This is what would happen next:
On their next login, they will only have the option to choose Google or Microsoft
As long as they have an account with the same email address, they’ll be logged in automatically
No additional setup or account linking is required - and all their data (collections, sharelinks, etc) will still be there.
A user signed up with Google or Microsoft SSO, but these were disabled
If a user originally signed up with Google or Microsoft, and both options are disabled leaving Email & password only enabled, our Support team will need to generate a temporary password for them.
Get in touch via the in-app chat with the user(s) email address, and we'll do it for you.
This step is required because users who signed up via Google or Microsoft don’t have a password by default.
