Social Login (Google & Facebook)

Social login options in Amelia allow customers and employees to log in or autofill their personal information using their existing Google or Facebook accounts. This simplifies the booking process, improves user experience, and helps avoid manual data entry errors.

Why Is Social Login Useful?

Whether you’re managing a spa, a fitness center, or a consulting business, allowing your users to log in with their existing Google or Facebook accounts offers several key benefits:

✔ Faster and easier booking – no need to type in name and email manually
✔ Fewer typos and invalid data in the system
✔ Seamless access to Customer and Employee Panels
✔ Encourages users to complete bookings by reducing friction

Setting Up Google Login

Google Login allows users to:

• Autofill their name and email in the booking form

• Log in directly to the Customer or Employee Panel

Enable Google Login in Amelia

Go to Amelia → Settings → Integrations → Social Login
Enable the Google Login toggle and click Save.

This activates the Google login functionality on booking forms and panels.
After enabling this option, proceed with setting up Google credentials.

Then get the Google Client ID and Secret

You’ll need credentials from your Google Cloud Console.
Follow the same process as outlined in the Google Calendar integration documentation.

And add Authorized JavaScript Origins

In the Google Cloud Console:

• Navigate to Credentials → select your OAuth 2.0 Client

• Scroll to Authorized JavaScript origins

• Add your website domain (e.g., https://yourwebsite.com)

This is required to avoid browser security errors during login.

Setting Up Facebook Login

Facebook Login supports both autofill during booking and panel login, but setup involves more steps.
