Launch secure apps faster with Logto. Integrate user auth in minutes, and focus on your core product.

Get started

Logto as an identity provider

From now, you can use Logto as an third-party OpenID Connect identity provider by creating an OIDC third party app during the application creating process.

This enables you to configure the permissions that the app requests and the branding for each third party app. When users sign in via this app, it will prompt for user consent:

This feature is useful for multiple scenarios, such as integrating third party services with Logto for in-house identity management, providing an open platform for developers creating third party apps, etc. See 🌐 Logto as an Identity Provider (IdP) to learn more.

Protected App

The Protected App is designed to eliminate the complexity of SDK integrations by separating the authentication layer from your application. With two input fields, you can create a secure and ultra fast authentication experience for your users.

This process is visualized in the following flowchart:

One of the best parts of Protected App is that it uses the same OpenID Connect protocol as other Logto applications. Under the hood, it is treated as a "traditional web" application, so it can seamlessly transit to a regular Logto application when needed. See 🔐 Protected App for more information.

Protected App will be open sourced soon.
