Authentication
Civo supports two login methods: Magic Link (passwordless email login) and Google OAuth. There is no traditional username/password registration — your account is created automatically on first login.
Logging In
Magic Link
- Navigate to the application URL in your browser
- Enter your email address and click "Send Magic Link"
- Check your inbox for an email containing a login link
- Click the link — you'll be logged in automatically
Link Expiry
Magic links expire after a short time. If your link has expired, return to the login page and request a new one.
Check Your Spam Folder
If the email doesn't arrive within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder.
Google OAuth
- Navigate to the application URL
- Click "Login with Google"
- Sign in via the Google authentication screen
- You'll be redirected back to the application
If this is your first time logging in with Google, you'll be taken to a short profile completion step — enter your first and last name, then click "Complete Profile".
After Logging In
Once authenticated, you'll land on the dashboard, which shows an activity timeline for all your clubs — including new events, news posts, and role changes. A collapsible sidebar on the right shows your upcoming events.
From here you can navigate to Clubs, your Profile / Settings, or any other section of the app.
Account Security
- Sessions are managed via secure JWT tokens
- You can view and revoke active sessions at any time under Profile → Settings → Sessions
