# Linking social accounts

> Connect Google, GitHub or LinkedIn to your Reactive Resume account so you can sign in with them, and disconnect a provider you no longer use.

Linking a social account lets you sign in with one click instead of typing a password. You can link several providers to the same account and disconnect them at any time.

## Before you start

Social sign-in only works when the site has set it up. On [rxresu.me](https://rxresu.me) the available providers appear in **Settings → Account**. On a self-hosted copy you may see none, some, or a provider named after your organization's sign-in service. If a provider isn't listed, it isn't available on that site.

## Connect a provider

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Sign-in & security">
    Select your name at the bottom of the sidebar, then **Settings**. On the **Account** page, scroll to **Sign-in & security**.
  </Step>

<Step title="Select Connect">
  Each available provider has its own row, such as **Google**, **GitHub** or **LinkedIn**. Select **Connect** next to
  the one you want.
</Step>

  <Step title="Approve the request">
    Sign in to the provider if asked, and allow access. You return to **Settings → Account**, and the row now reads **Connected**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Frame caption="Provider rows in Sign-in & security. Only providers the site has set up are listed.">
  <img

    alt="The Sign-in and security section with Password, Two-step verification and Passkeys rows, followed by Google marked Not connected with a Connect button, GitHub marked Connected with a Disconnect button, and LinkedIn marked Not connected with a Connect button"
  />
</Frame>

From now on, select that provider's button on the sign-in page to get in.

<Tip>
  If you sign in with Google, GitHub or LinkedIn using the same email address as your existing account, Reactive Resume
  links the provider to that account when the email is verified both in Reactive Resume and by the provider. Otherwise,
  sign in to your existing account and select **Connect** in settings, or verify the email before trying again.
</Tip>

## Disconnect a provider

In **Sign-in & security**, select **Disconnect** next to a connected provider. You can no longer sign in with it, but your account and documents stay as they are.

You can't disconnect your last sign-in method. If you signed up with a social account and have only one provider, [set a password](/guides/updating-your-profile#change-your-password) or connect another provider first. A passkey doesn't count here.
