Does GreenLight prevent users without an email address from logging in? #5758

Hi folks,

We are currently using BBB v2.7/GreenLight v3/Keycloak v20 (installed using bbb-install.sh). Users are synchronized from MS Active Directory to KeyCloak, and then retrieved from KeyCloak when logging in to BBB. A user reported that they were unable to log in. I initially found that they were able to pass KeyCloak 2FA (Google Authenticator), but after entering the OTP, GreenLight displayed an error balloon: You can't be authenticated. Please contact your administrator.

Since there is a session for the user's login in KeyCloak Sessions, I would like to ask if the BBB/GreenLight use case is for users with email addresses only?(The user has no email.)

Yes, to my knowledge Greenlight v3 is designed around the requirement that all users have an email address associated with them.

Hi, @Ithanil,

Thanks for your reply. We will be filling the email address field for all users soon.
