Is it possible to change the login method? Currently, I log in using Google account authentication, but I would like to switch to using an email address and password instead. I do not want to cancel my current account and create a new one, so could you please tell me how to change the login method while keeping my current account?

Hi @white stump. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

If you initially signed up using a social login method, such as Google, you cannot switch to using an email and password for logging in. The login attempt with email and password will fail, and password reset emails will not be delivered. Users in this situation are advised to continue using the original social login method.

For more details, you can refer to the relevant knowledge source: Can I change my authentication method?

If you originally signed up with an email and password, you can later log in using a social login method, such as Google, and the account will be merged, allowing you to log in using either method.

Unfortunately, deleting your account does not allow you to change your authentication method either. For more information, you can check this source: How to delete your account.

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
