Adding an Intervals login to your web site

John Reeve | December 9th, 2008 | ,

If you’re looking to integrate an Intervals login form directly into your website, here’s how. With just a bit of HTML, you can easily create a form that allows users to log into their Intervals account from your own web interface. Below is a simple example of the HTML code needed to set this up:


<form method="POST" action="https://[your.intervals.domain]/">
<input type="hidden" name="module" value="people" />
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="loginsubmit" />
Username: <input type="text" name="f_username" value="" /><br />
Password: <input type="password" name="f_password" value="" /><br />
<input type="submit" />
</form>

Important Notes:

  • Be sure to use https for a secure connection (otherwise it won’t work).
  • Replace the Action URL: The form’s action attribute should point to your specific Intervals domain. For example, if your domain is pelago.projectaccount.com, the form should have the action: https://pelago.projectaccount.com/.

 

Once you’ve replaced the placeholders with your domain information, the login form will look something like this:

Username:

Password:

By embedding this form, you’re allowing your users to seamlessly log into Intervals without needing to navigate away from your site, streamlining their experience and keeping them connected to your brand.
