You’re viewing developer documentation
This documentation is for developers working with the Base44 developer platform. For information about managing login methods in the app editor, see Managing login and registration.
Authentication controls how your app’s users sign in, register, and access its features. Auth config lets you manage login methods as a local JSONC file that you sync with Base44 using the CLI.

​
Configure

Your auth config is a single JSONC file at base44/auth/config.jsonc. You can customize the directory path with the authDir property in your project configuration. Pull the current config from Base44 with auth pull, then push changes with auth push or deploy. You can also toggle login methods from the command line with auth password-login and auth social-login.

​
Example

{
  "enableUsernamePassword": true,
  "enableGoogleLogin": false,
  "enableMicrosoftLogin": false,
  "enableFacebookLogin": false,
  "enableAppleLogin": false,
  "googleOAuthMode": "default",
  "googleOAuthClientId": null
}

​

​

​
googleOAuthMode
"default" | "custom"
How Google OAuth credentials are sourced. Use default to use Base44-managed credentials, or custom to use your own OAuth client. Defaults to default.
​
googleOAuthClientId
string | null
Custom Google OAuth client ID. Only used when googleOAuthMode is custom. Set this with auth social-login google enable --client-id. The matching client secret is stored as a project secret, not in this file. Defaults to null.
If your config has no login methods enabled, the CLI warns that users will be locked out when you push. Make sure at least one login method is enabled.
