Using contacts for App Login - Possible?

resolver

I want to build an App with Adalo, in the App the end user needs to login into the App before the user can do/see anything. I want to manage the user and the login credentials in HubSpot. I've searched various sites but cannot find any hints or tips. Suggestions on how to set this up?

 

Questions I've:

- Can I use the email address already stored in HubSpot? 

- Should I add a password field/property to the contacts? How can I make this a hash field as I don't want to store plain password? 

- Which API calls should I use to check the login credentials? 

 

Any suggestions on how to set this up? Thanks.

Hey @danmoyle, Thanks to tagged here. I would love to suggest solutions on raised questions of @RGroothuis,

 

Hi @RGroothuisto build an App with Adalo,

 

- Can I use the email address already stored in HubSpot? 

1. Yes, You can definitely use the email address stored in HubSpot.

 

- Should I add a password field/property to the contacts? How can I make this a hash field as I don't want to store plain password? 

2. Yes, you should add a password field/property to the contacts. You can use a hashing algorithm to store the passwords in a secure way. You can use a hashing library like BCrypt or Argon2 to generate the hashes.

 

- Which API calls should I use to check the login credentials? 

3. You will need to use the Contacts API to check the login credentials. The API call you need to make will depend on the type of authentication you are using. If you are using basic authentication, you can use the Search Contacts endpoint to check the credentials. If you are using OAuth authentication, you can use the Get Contact By ID endpoint to check the credentials.

 

Hope this helps!

@RGroothuis have you asked the Developer community this question? That may be a great place to start. This advanced of a situation is probably best in their hands 😊 

 

I'll also tag a cople folks that may have insight. @Syeda_Fatima @Jaycee_Lewis @Kevin-C @dennisedson

Hi Dan, 

 

Thanks for your response. I've not asked the question in the developers community, as I'm new to this forum I don't know yet where to ask which question. I will check the developers community and repost the question there. In the mean time, maybe one of the people you tagged have a solution or can guide me into the good direction. Thanks. 

 

Cheers, Rene
