In today’s world of modern events, having a seamless and efficient login process is crucial in delivering a positive attendee experience. The login process is often the first impression attendees will have of your event and it sets the tone for everything that follows. Hence, it is crucial that all stakeholders can access your event quickly and safely.  

That’s why PheedLoop is excited to announce our highly-anticipated integration with OpenID Connect (OIDC). Available on all PheedLoop front-end portals, the PheedLoop-OIDC integration ensures your stakeholders have a seamless login experience to your event by being able to choose between their existing email addresses or social media accounts. 

Let’s explore how you can leverage this integration to make the login experience of your event smoother, faster, and more connected than ever! 

How the PheedLoop-OIDC Integration Works

The PheedLoop-OIDC works by allowing users to gain instant access to your event on PheedLoop by logging in with their email addresses or social media accounts. Built upon Oauth 2.0 protocols, this capability offers a streamlined, secure, and user-friendly login experience.

To set up this integration, you can navigate to the Event Dashboard settings and connect the two platforms by filling out the required fields. This integration requires minimal setup time, allowing you and your team to focus on planning for the event while letting us manage the technicalities. Once the integration is complete, you have successfully implemented a seamless and secure login experience across all key portals, including:

• Event Website
• All stakeholder portals (Exhibitors, Sponsors, Speakers, and Attendees)
• All application portals (Proposal, Exhibitor, and Sponsor)

Simplified User Access Through Single Sign-On (SSO)

One of the most notable advantages of this integration is its Single Sign-On (SSO) capability, allowing users to log into multiple PheedLoop portals within seconds by using their existing Google, Facebook, and various platforms OIDC supports. This streamlined approach eliminates the need to remember multiple passwords or create new accounts for your attendees, making it easier for them to access your event and engage with the content. 

Plus, this integration is incredibly useful for first-time attendees who might not be familiar with the interface or those who aren’t particularly tech-savvy, helping to remove any barriers to participation. With an easy onboarding process and instant access to your event, your attendees can dive straight into the content, engage with others, and make meaningful connections without any technical frustrations. 

Unmatched Flexibility In Configuration

With PheedLoop, you have the ability to decide where the OIDC integration appears as a login option in PheedLoop's front-end portals. This customization allows you to tailor the login process to your event, creating a seamless and branded experience to your liking. 

Whether logging via their desktop, mobile device, or tablet, your attendees will have a consistent login experience across all entry points to your event. This consistency ensures they can participate in various activities without interruption or confusion. Especially for hybrid events or those with diverse entry points, this flexibility ensures uninterrupted access, no matter how participants choose to engage.  

Enhanced Data and Security Control

Security is paramount, and the PheedLoop-OIDC integration prioritizes the safety of your attendees’ data while simplifying access by reducing the number of passwords users have to memorize, eliminating the risk of your password being compromised.

But why? When your team members or attendees need to use multiple passwords to access the software they need for the event, they often pick easy-to-memorize passwords, such as Password1234!, and use the same one across several accounts. With this integration, you are required to verify with multi-factor authorization, such as verifying on a trusted device or entering a token, adding another layer of security to your account. 

By centralizing your PheedLoop access authentication in one app, you can experience a much more efficient log-in experience, allowing you to spend more time on productive work rather than trying to gain access to apps.

Wrap Up

The PheedLoop-OIDC integration is a game-changer for event management. By simplifying access, providing unmatched customization, and enhancing security, this feature empowers event organizers to deliver better experiences while reducing administrative challenges. 

Our integration with OIDC demonstrates PheedLoop’s commitment to continuously improving user experience by collaborating with industry leaders. We are dedicated to providing innovative solutions that make event planning and execution smoother and more efficient. Stay tuned for more exciting updates and features from PheedLoop!
