Windows Live ID is a single sign-on service provided and maintained by Microsoft. By integrating Live ID into your website, you can allow site visitors to log in to your website using their Live ID (Microsoft Account) name and password.
When a user signs in through a third-party authentication service for the first time, Kentico automatically creates a new user account for this user. Learn more about managing users that sign in through a third-party authentication service.
The following diagram shows how the process of Live ID login works.
Registration approval and double opt-in
If your site is configured to require registration approval or double opt-in, first-time users who attempt to log in with their Live ID will be redirected to the standard logon page without any further information, which may lead to confusion.
This issue can be avoided by creating a Required user data page where users must enter an e-mail address for their account. When this is done, users will receive a notification e-mail about the status of their account.
