Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

When a instance is switched to OpenID and first user is successfully logged in, another user tries to log in via OpenID, however it just shows:

{"status":"error","reason":"openid-grant-failed"}

as a response to https://actualbudget.example.com/openid/callback?code=7ff2a3bf0ba74562b1eb470c1c1c0dea&state=zZPO15Tiw92COBUKNBfsgx1xGdfHJHtgo0unf9fRmbo

v25.8.0

How can we reproduce the issue?

To work around this issue there is needed to set environment variable ACTUAL_USER_CREATION_MODE to login. I suppose creation mode should be switched to login automatically when login method is switched to OpenID.

Since the feature already exists, Ill close this issue. Adding this setting to the GUI would be a good feature request if there isn't one for that already.
