No access to CMS UI using external provider: Google

Support
1

I have a jekyll site, I want my client to login the CMS using his google account.

  • I activated the option (external providers)
  • In registration preferences I set to invite only. Invitation email is sent.
  • Login with the gmail account is ok, and I can see the message that the user is logged

But when the user is trying to enter the CMS UI, using nameWebsite.netlify.com/admin the screen just give option to login with Github account. So my client can’t access to the console. What am I forgetting or missing?

External auth providers only work with Netlify Identity as a backend, it looks like you’re using the GitHub backend instead

Thanks @tomrutgers, in fact it was more a problem of the _config.yml file in the admin folder. Anyway I’m still learning this integrations.
