Social Connections Settings

Social connections settings enable and configure the integrations with supported social identity providers. As a Storefront Gateway Admin user, you can enable and configure social integrations with one or more of our supported social account providers. Currently, Storefront Gateway supports integrations with Apple, Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, and Microsoft (Azure). Configure the social connections from Admin console > Authentication > Social Connections page. When you enable and configure a social integration with one or more of these providers, then you can build social onboarding and social authentication user flows into your application(s). More specifically, your client application(s) can execute our OAuth 2.0-based social Processes, and specify the enabled provider during Process execution. Before you configure a social media integration, an app on the social provider’s developer portal must be created. You must have secret keys (for example, App/Client ID and App/Client Secret) issued by the social media provider. Refer to the following topics for more details:

Onboard and Authenticate User with Social Account – an anonymous user onboards or authenticates with a social account.
Associate Social Account to User – an authenticated user connects their social account to their User entity.
