Set a password for a social sign-in account

All plans Member

If you created your Onplana account with Sign in with Google or Sign in with Microsoft, you never chose a password. You can add one from your account settings so you can also sign in with your email and a password, useful as a backup, or if you ever lose access to the social account. Adding a password does not disconnect social sign-in: your account keeps both methods.

When you see this

Section titled “When you see this”

In Settings, Security, an account that signed up socially and has no password yet shows a Set a Password form (instead of the usual Change Password form, which asks for your current password). If you already have a password, you will see Change Password instead.

Set your password

Section titled “Set your password”

  1. Open Settings and select the Security tab.

  2. Find Set a Password. Because you have no current password, it does not ask for one, it just asks for the new password (twice).

  3. Enter a strong password and confirm it, then save.

That is it. From now on you can sign in with either your social account (Google or Microsoft) or your email and this password. It is one account with two ways in, nothing is merged or duplicated.

FAQs

Section titled “FAQs”

Does setting a password disconnect Google or Microsoft sign-in? No. Social sign-in keeps working exactly as before. You are just adding a second way to sign in.

Can I do this for someone else on my team? No. Setting a password is a personal action on your own account only. An admin cannot set another member’s password.

I signed up with email originally, why do I not see Set a Password? Because you already have one. Use Change Password to update it, or Forgot password on the login page if you do not remember it.

Is my password separate from my Google or Microsoft password? Yes. The password you set here is your Onplana password. It is not your Google or Microsoft account password and changing one does not change the other.
