[Idea 💡] Sign into Forums with Umbraco ID (Cloud SSO)

I know this will get batted away, but I wanted to put this idea out so perhaps it could be considered in the future.

Is that we try to use Umbraco ID across all of Umbraco services, including the forum and perhaps it may open us to clients/marketers etc who use Umbraco Cloud but perhaps don’t feel comfortable creating a GitHub account.

As mentioned at the beginning, I doubt this will happen any time soon but I want to just perhaps leave this here to put in a future backlog for ‘one day’

Good suggestion, but I’ve been told by the Umbraco Id team there’s no plans to support external implementations for the foreseeable future.

Currently the only way to create an account is to take a Cloud trial anyway…
It’s not like it’s difficult to create a GitHub account either!

There are more possibilities for connecting things to Discourse but they all require significant handholding on HQs part, which is why we took the absolute easiest route that we could take here.
