Social Login: Enforce Re-Authentication with auth_type

DATE:
AUTHOR: Ory Team

In this update, we have enhanced social login functionality by introducing support for the auth_type parameter, particularly beneficial for providers like Facebook. This feature provides more control over authentication processes, enhancing security and user experience.

The OIDC provider now includes the option to use the auth_type parameter, allowing users to trigger re-authentication when set to re-authenticate, similar to using prompt=login with other providers.

  • Added support for the auth_type parameter in social login.

  • You can now use auth_type=re-authenticate for OIDC providers to force re-authentication.

When you have configured Facebook as login option, review the Facebook Re-authentication document, as well as the Ory documentation to use this feature.
