Connected apps
The Connected apps tab of your settings, at auth.sourceorigin.dev/settings/apps,
lists the apps you signed in to with Origin Auth that keep access to your account,
and what each can see. Remove any you no longer use.
Before you start
You need to be signed in. Removing an app’s access needs no passkey confirmation.
How an app gets access
The first time an app signs you in, Origin Auth asks Continue to the app, names the site it sends you back to, and lists what the app will receive:
- Your account identifier,
- Your username, display name and profile picture: your profile,
- Your verified email address: your primary address,
- Access your account while you’re away, for an app that keeps working when you aren’t using it.
An app never sees your passkeys, and can’t change your account. An app that another Origin Account registered is marked Unverified app, registered by the handle of whoever registered it: SourceOrigin hasn’t checked who runs it, so continue only if you trust it.
Select Continue to allow it, or Cancel to refuse. Once you allow it, the app doesn’t ask again unless it asks for more. To sign in to the app with another account, select Not you? Switch account.
Apps that SourceOrigin makes don’t ask: they are marked Made by SourceOrigin.
Read the list
Each app shows what it Sees, and whether it Can use your account while you’re away or Can use your account only while you’re signed in to it.
Remove an app’s access
- Select Remove access beside the app.
- Select Remove access again to confirm.
The page says The app no longer has access to your account. The app can no longer refresh its access, and needs your approval again before it signs you in. Access it already has can last up to 5 minutes.
An app made by SourceOrigin gets its access back, without asking, the next time you sign in to it.
Removing an app’s access doesn’t sign out your devices: other apps share them. To sign a device out, see devices.
