Sign in without passwords

CollieDesk has no passwords. You sign in with a one-time link.

  • Pairing link: printed by the create-workspace or pair command for a specific person.
  • Invite link: created by an admin in Settings → Invites (see Invite your team).

Each link works once and expires after 15 minutes. CollieDesk stores only a hash of the link, so nobody, including us, can read it back later. If a link is invalid, expired or already used, ask your admin for a new one.

Opening a link signs that browser in for 30 days; using CollieDesk extends it. You can see and revoke every signed-in device in Sessions and devices.

Cloud sign-in

Some hosted CollieDesk instances show Sign in on the same page. Use it to authenticate with the identity methods enabled by the instance owner, such as Google, Microsoft, email, or MFA.

Cloud sign-in does not create a CollieDesk agent. Your verified primary email must already belong to an agent in at least one workspace. If it belongs to several workspaces, choose the workspace after authentication. CollieDesk then creates its own ordinary browser session; the identity provider does not receive or manage that CollieDesk session.

Self-hosted instances without cloud configuration behave exactly as before and do not load the cloud sign-in code. One-time pairing and invite links remain available when cloud sign-in is enabled.
