Automatic login for users

MediaLab supports auto-login links, which let users log in automatically without entering credentials.

  • Auto-login links are tied to a specific user account.
  • They can be generated for one-time use or for a longer period.
  • The permissions of the linked user account determine what the recipient can access.

This feature is often used to provide public access to specific folders, such as a screening room.

Auto-Login Add-on

  • Not enabled by default — contact the MediaLab service desk to activate it.
  • Generates unique links that log users in under the shared account.
  • Links can be set to expire after a period or revoked at any time.
  • They can be placed on websites for public access or shared with select groups.
