Sign in with a code or a link
Sign in once with an emailed code and once with an emailed link.
Planned
Steps
Sign in with a code sent to your email address.
What the server will check: A code sign-in to your account after you started.
Sign out, then sign in with a link sent to your email address.
What the server will check: A link sign-in to your account after that.
Compare the two.
What the server will check: Nothing to check. Think about which one a mail scanner could use up, and which one you could type on another device.
When it opens
This lab is planned. It opens when these are in place:
- Email code and link sign-in for BTL accounts
The server checks your own account records and sign-in history, and shows only whether each step is done. It never shows the events themselves.
