Drupal.org blog: Drupal.org login flow is changing

The Drupal Association engineering team is preparing to switch over to our new single sign-on solution for user login. This is an important step in our work to upgrade Drupal.org, and in the future will give you the ability to use your Drupal.org identity in new ways.

The Drupal Association engineering team is preparing to switch over to our new single sign-on solution for user login. This is an important step in our work to upgrade Drupal.org, and in the future will give you the ability to use your Drupal.org identity in new ways.

The switch-over is scheduled for:

  • Thursday 25 July - from 9am to 11am Pacific (4pm-6pm UTC).

During this window you will be unable to login to Drupal.org or edit your profile, and may not be able to access related services which use your Drupal identity, such as git.drupalcode.org.

When we make this change, the login experience will look different. 

If you are an existing user

When you click to login or create an account you will be redirected to: accounts.drupal.org

You will log in with your existing Drupal.org username or email and your current password, and your two factor authentication code if you have TFA enabled.

Once you log in, you will have to change your password.

If you have Two Factor Authentication enabled, you will also have to set up a new seed.

After that, you'll be taken back to Drupal.org as normal. You should be directed back to the path you came from.

If you are creating a new account

When you click 'create account' on Drupal.org you will be taken to the new account creation page:

After you complete the basic information,  you will be taken to the Drupal.org welcome page to fill out the rest of your user profile.

If you need to change your account information

The majority of your account information will continue to live in your Drupal.org profile, however, some basic account information will now be stored and updated in the Drupal.org SSO system.

When you click to edit your first and last name, username, password, email address, or enable two factor authentication you'll be taken to the account page:

Setting up Two Factor Authentication

This account settings page is also where you can change your Two Factor Authentication settings. You can use the 'Account Security' tab in the sidebar to navigate to the Two Factor setup process:

If you need to reset your password

If you have forgotten your password, you can reset your password from the login page:

You will receive a password reset email from noreply@drupal.org allowing you to change your password.

If you encounter any issues with your account, please contact us at help@drupal.org
