Do you have any API for logging in using Facepunch account in plans like there is one using Google now? I was thinking of making a game where you can win coins for being best at the end of each month and it would be nice if you could just log in to it using your Facepunch account. If not can I at least make an request for an API that checks if specified Google account is linked with any account on Facepunch?
Not currently, but this is on the roadmap: Extra Fields Some sites encouraged users to paste codes on their profile to verify their identity. Formalize this. An actual login API would be better than a still-hacky 'formalized' extra field on your profile though.
Still that is something I couldn't use since I need a way to connect profiles in my game to user accounts on Facepunch. Of course I can make them register in my game with login, password and nickname from Facepunch as additional required field and then store that in my own database but having an API so they can just press "Login with Facepunch" button instead of wasting their time on creating accounts is at least ten times better.
Yeah authenticating accounts externally is definitely something I want to be able to do.
Cool, can't wait!
I did my take on this, in this thread: My take on the NewPunch Could API keys work for this too?
Might want to this to ensure he sees it.
Any news on this or has this been abandoned/postponed?
