Signing in with Google, Microsoft, or Apple

Who can do this?

Overview

If you would rather not manage a separate MyApprentice password, you can register for a new account using your existing Google, Microsoft, or Apple credentials. The platform calls this OAuth sign-in. Once you have registered with a provider, you log in the same way every time.

Who uses this feature

Anyone creating a new MyApprentice account, and existing users who want to link a Google, Microsoft, or Apple provider to their account. OAuth is available at both sign-up and on the returning-user sign-in page.

When to use this feature

  • You are a new user setting up an account and prefer to use Google, Microsoft, or Apple instead of an email-and-password combination.
  • Your business is on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 and you want a consistent sign-in experience.

What you can do with this feature

  • Register with Google, Microsoft, or Apple.
  • Sign in afterwards using the same provider you registered with.

How the feature works

  1. Open app.myapprentice.dev.
  2. On the sign-up page, select Continue with Google, Continue with Microsoft, or Continue with Apple.
  3. Authenticate with the chosen provider (account selection, password, Face ID, or Touch ID as appropriate).
  4. Grant the provider permission to share your sign-in with MyApprentice.
  5. You are returned to MyApprentice and your account is created.

Role-specific notes

The OAuth option is presented during sign-up. The role you take inside MyApprentice — Business Owner, Sole Trader, Supervisor, Finance, Tradie, or Apprentice — is set separately when your business invites you or when you register the business.

  • Setting Up Your MyApprentice Account
  • Securing Your Account with MFA

Important notes

  • OAuth is available on the sign-up page and on the returning-user sign-in page. An existing email-and-password account can also link a Google, Microsoft, or Apple provider after registration.
  • The email address on your Google, Microsoft, or Apple account must match the email registered to your MyApprentice account.
  • Your password is managed by the OAuth provider (Google, Microsoft, or Apple), not by MyApprentice.
