    Hi

    Is it possible to encrypt a user’s username and password and send them through in the URL?

    This would be to facilitate a kind of Single Sign On between an EE site and bespoke system.

    Thanks

    Hi, Bluebloc,

    The password in EE is already encrypted.  Sending that information through the URL is something you would need to custom develop.

    Instead, to integrate single sign on, you might consider a custom add-on using our Development API and the session class

    Does that help?
