This feature is available in the Essential plan and higher.

Currently, Passkeys can only be used to log in to the Control Panel. Support for Client Application login is in development and will be available soon.

Passkeys are a passwordless authentication method that allows you to sign in using biometrics (such as Face ID or fingerprint recognition) or a PIN on your trusted devices. Instead of typing a password, Passkeys use cryptographic keys that are securely stored on your device.

Why use Passkeys?

Passkeys offer several benefits over traditional passwords:

  • Enhanced Security: Passkeys cannot be stolen in phishing attacks, as they do not rely on traditional passwords.

  • Seamless Access: Sign in quickly with Face ID, Touch ID, or a device PIN—no need to remember complex passwords.

  • Cross-Device Support: Passkeys can sync across devices using secure cloud storage, allowing easy sign-ins on multiple platforms.
