Logging in
By default, SpaceDrake allows logging in via email/password as well as various social authentication providers like Google, GitHub, GitLab, and Apple.
Organization administrators can add other authentication methods, including the SAML and LDAP integrations, or disable any of the methods above.
You can log in with any method allowed by your organization, regardless of how you signed up. For example, if you originally signed up using your Google account, you can later log in using GitHub, as long as your Google account and GitHub account use the same email address.
