Apple login backend User account link

Hi,

I’m trying to implement Apple login but while I understand how to set things up, how does the Apple account/id actually get tied to a user account in our database?

I can’t seem to decipher that from the provided documentation in Login With Apple | Backendless Mobile Backend as a Service

Hi @Innocent_Nwaukwa,

We do not tie the Apple account directly to the Backendless account. Apple is used solely as an identity provider. It validates the token and extracts the email, which we then use to store the user in Backendless. The password in the Backendless Users table will be a random UUID (used to strengthen the user record, but not utilized elsewhere).

Regards,
Stanislaw

Alright, thank you Stanislaw
I’ll give it a go and get back to you if I have further difficulty on this.

Thank You,
Innocent.
