Login #

You can use the Account service to manage your users’ login experience.

Customize login experience #

After a user has successfully authenticated with your game, you can use the Login Data Plugin to customize the login experience. The Login Data Plugin collects data from multiple sources and sends it to the client on player login.

The Login Data Plugin defines dependent jobs that start when a player logs in. Authoring additional dependent jobs can handle new capabilities, such as granting players rewards on login. For more information, see Authoring dependent jobs.

Login queue #

To prevent your game from crashing during peak hours the login queue routes your players through a queue when they attempt to log in using your authentication services. With the login queue:

• You can rate limit logins to help manage larger than normal requests to your game, such as on launch days
• You can use authentication servers with lower hardware requirements without the risk of server overload
• You can provide more information to your players on the login screen

See the Get Started with Login Queues guide for more details.
