Creating Auto login from android app to discourse

[chitale_prasad (Prasad Chitale)]

Hi!

I have an android app. Inside android app I have called my Discourse forum using Web browser activity. My users need to login again in Discourse due to this. Is their any way by which I can auto login them if discourse is accessed from my android app?

Regards

I too am interested in knowing the solution to above.
Anyone found a solution ?

Was you able to find a solution for that?
I’m trying to do a similar thing

No. Not yet. I am still exploring.

This topic seems so similar than:

Automatic Login from iOS/Android app

This is super timely See: Working on it this week. Basically after we generate an API key we redirect to a universal link that your app can open. Definately do not ship API keys in the app, you are 1 jailbreak away from hackers doing whatever they want to your website.
