Connectors
Connectors are the bridge between Logto and external services. They enable passwordless-verification methods like email verification, SMS verification, social login, and enterprise SSO.
Traditional account registration with usernames and passwords can be a tedious and frustrating process. Users often struggle to remember complex passwords and may be hesitant to create new accounts due to the inconvenience. If users can provide their email or phone number and verify it via verification codes; or log in using accounts like Google/Facebook, or corporate accounts like Microsoft, this can greatly simplify the login process and reduce user churn. Connector was created to solve this problem.
Connector types
Logto offers four types of connectors:
Integrate with email delivery service for user email verification.
Integrate with SMS service for user phone number verification.
Integrate with social identity provider for social sign-in.
Integrate with enterprise identity provider for enterprise SSO.
