            Embedded Login

            With Salesforce Identity Embedded Login, you can integrate Salesforce login capabilities into your own external website. When customers access your external website, they see a login form that prompts them to enter a username and password. Depending on the use case, you can use Embedded Login as a single sign-on (SSO) alternative for your external webpages. Or use Embedded Login to add a layer of authentication to purchases by requiring customers to log in first.

            Required Editions

            Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
            Available in: Professional, Enterprise, Unlimited, and Developer Editions
            Warning
            Warning In Summer ’24, Salesforce made Embedded Login disabled by default. We recommend that you use the web server flow, the user-agent flow, or another redirect-based OAuth 2.0 flow instead of Embedded Login.

            Embedded Login relies on third-party cookies, which are blocked or restricted in most browsers. And Embedded Login works only on Google Chrome and only as long as third-party cookies are allowed there by default.

            Configure embedded login for these use cases.

            Require Authentication to Access Your Site

            If your external website doesn’t support SSO, use embedded login to require customers to log in before accessing your external website. For example, when customers visit your external website, they see a login button embedded on the webpage. The customer enters their Salesforce credentials in the login form. Salesforce authenticates them, allowing them to access your webpage.

            Require Authentication for Purchases

            Similarly, you can use embedded login to add a login button to the page with your shopping cart. Customers are then required to authenticate before they can make a purchase. For example, they add items to their shopping cart. Before they make a purchase, they enter a username and password, adding a layer of authentication to your external shop.
