Firebase Auth with email link in unity?

[Thaina]

Is it possible?

@Thaina it's not possible at the moment though we're working on it.

@stewartmiles im having a problem related to Google Play Services at my unity app for oculus, do you think you may have tome time to check it and tell me if is there anything i can do? this was the only way i found to contact you, sorry for the "out of place comment"

E-mail link auth would be a fantastic addition to firebase for unity. The frictionless method of auth is much better suited to casual games than the e-mail password paradigm. Has there been any progress on this?

Any updates about email link in unity with frictionless method ?

Especially since I'm building my Unity project to iOS + Android, and those two platforms actually have Email Link Auth already. Hmm... could the auth be done via the iOS + Android Firebase plugins, and then somehow handed into Unity?

That is actually what we did in the company I work for, so I still don't understand why this is not available directly on the Unity SDK.

It's hard to imagine it's impossible. But it may be difficult for some reason and the team doesn't feel it's worth prioritizing.

Better chances if this thread had a ton more activity :)

We actually have a code flow auth system that gives the user a 6 digit code to log in with through an authenticated web portal.

It would be great to have limited device code pairing as well

Any updates on progress? Would love to see this for the VR use-case in Unity where password managers are not available and typing is a pain.

Hi @stewartmiles, Is it now possible to use Firebase email link authentication with Unity? Thanks!

[Thaina]

While the official solution is not presented. I somehow start to think that the actual key we need is ability to build unity to handle our own url schema that firebase email link will be sent to. Which is platform dependent and so we need to check how android and ios doing it separately

Thank you for your fast reply! I agree with you; perhaps this is the way to do it. Here is the ChatGPT link
