MyLogin FAQs:

Q: Can MyLogin work with local Active Directory as an SSO Idenity Provider (IdP)?
A: It can as long as your organisation has access to Entra ID connect.  MyLogin will only be able to link accounts from Microsoft Entra ID and the devices need to also be cloud managed via Intune or hybrid managed both in local AD and Intune.

Q: Once MyLogin is enacted as the IdP for Chrome OS Devices, will this mean that when users login into their device they are also logged into their Google account and Google Workspace applications?
A: Yes.

Q: Is MyLogin compatible with ChromeOS Flex devices as an SSO IdP?

A: Yes.

Q: Once MyLogin is enacted as the IdP for Windows 11 Devices, will this mean that when users log into their device they are also logged into their Microsoft account and Microsoft 365 environment?
A: Yes.

A: It can not, Wonde's Edusync product is capable of provisioning and matching data from MIS to Google/Microsoft. Please see the Edusync website for further information edusync.com

Q: Can a child choose their own Emoji password?
A: Emoji passwords are set automatically and can not be chosen.

Q: As an administrator can I remove some of the login options for users?
A: Yes, you will be able to select which options are visible to users. For example, you can select only the Magic badge option if you only want this method of authentication to be available. These options are found on the ‘Login modes’ tab on the MyLogin settings page.

Q: What if a user forgets their password or magic badge?
A: A MyLogin teacher account can print off their Magic badge or Emoji password or provide a temporary access PIN. An admin can generate a new login credential entirely.

Q: Where does MyLogin get it's data from and where is the data stored?
A: Both MyLogin systems can use MIS, Google or Microsoft as the source of it's data. Any data Wonde holds is held with Amazon Web Services servers. Further information on Wonde’s policies and security can be viewed here - https://www.wonde.com/security/

Q: Do I need your Edusync product for MyLogin to work?
A: Edusync is not mandatory for MyLogin. Edusync makes quick work of provisioning your Google or Microsoft environment. When paired with MyLogin it will make it even easier to manage your users and provide them with a simple login method to their devices and/or apps.

Q: I want to use the MyLogin Dashboard on a different computer to one I have set up with MyLogin as the IdP. Are the users able to access the MyLogin Dashboard from different devices that aren't set up with MyLogin as the IdP?
A: Yes, users will be able to use the MyLogin Dashboard on devices that are not utilising MyLogin as the identity provider.
