Coolify sign-in, Git provider sign-in inside Coolify, and authentication for your own applications are separate systems. ## Sign-in methods Your MapleDeploy account can have more than one sign-in method. - **Email and password:** Use the email address and password on your MapleDeploy account. You can change or set your password from **Settings** > **Security** > **Password**. - **Social sign-in:** Social buttons appear only for providers currently enabled on MapleDeploy. MapleDeploy does not automatically link a social provider just because it reports the same email address. Sign in first, then connect a provider from **Settings** > **Security** > **Connected accounts**. - **Passkeys:** Passkeys let you sign in with Touch ID, Face ID, Windows Hello, browser-synced passkeys, or compatible security keys. - **Two-factor authentication:** Two-factor authentication adds an authenticator app after password sign-in. If your account has two-factor authentication enabled, passkey sign-in completes sign-in on its own. Password sign-in still requires your authenticator code. ## Sign in Use one of the sign-in methods available on your account: - Enter your email and password. - Select **Sign in with a passkey** if you have registered a passkey. - Use a social sign-in button if the provider is shown and connected to your account. If password sign-in asks for a second factor, enter your authenticator code or use a saved recovery code. ## Create an account 1. Go to [app.mapledeploy.ca/signup](https://app.mapledeploy.ca/signup). 2. Enter your name, email, password, and optional organization name. 3. Accept the terms. 4. Submit the form. 5. Return to the sign-in page and sign in with your new account. If a social sign-in button is shown, you can use it to create or sign in to an account with that provider instead. If you are accepting an organization invitation, use the email address from the invitation. The invitation flow returns you to the invitation after signup or sign-in. ## Change your password 1. Open **Settings** > **Security** > **Password**. 2. Enter your current password. 3. Enter and confirm the new password. 4. Save the change. If your account does not currently have a password, the dashboard shows **Set a password** instead. ## Add a passkey To add a passkey: 1. Sign in to the dashboard. 2. Open **Settings** > **Security** > **Passkeys**. 3. Enter a name for the passkey. 4. Enter your current password and, if two-factor authentication is enabled, your authenticator code. 5. Confirm the action. 6. Complete the browser or device passkey prompt. After a passkey is added, you can use **Sign in with a passkey** on the sign-in page. To remove a passkey, open **Settings** > **Security** > **Passkeys**, choose **Revoke**, enter the required verification details, and confirm the action. ## Enable two-factor authentication To enable two-factor authentication: 1. Sign in to the dashboard. 2. Open **Settings** > **Security** > **Two-factor authentication**. 3. Enter your current password. 4. Scan the QR code in an authenticator app, or enter the manual key. 5. Save the recovery codes shown during setup. 6. Enter the code from your authenticator app to finish setup. Recovery codes are shown only during setup or regeneration. Each code works once. Store them somewhere you can reach if you lose your authenticator device. ## Manage social sign-in Open **Settings** > **Security** > **Connected accounts**. To connect a provider, choose the provider, enter your current password and any required authenticator code, then complete the provider sign-in flow. The provider email must match your MapleDeploy account email. To disconnect a provider, choose **Disconnect** for that provider, enter the required verification details, and confirm the action. MapleDeploy blocks disconnecting the only remaining sign-in method. ## Change your email address 1. Open **Settings** > **Account** > **Email**. 2. Enter the new email address and your current password. 3. Check the new email inbox for the verification email. 4. Open the verification link while signed in to the dashboard. Your email address is not changed until the verification link is confirmed. ## Sign out Use **Sign out** from the dashboard menu. This ends the current dashboard session in the browser. If you signed in on another browser or device, sign out there too. Changing or resetting your password revokes other active sessions. ## Account recovery For forgotten passwords, lost passkeys, lost authenticator apps, or lost inbox access, see [Account recovery](/docs/account-recovery).
