Sign In with Google on Upwork

To streamline the login experience, Upwork is now supporting Google sign-in! To enable this option, clients and freelancers can set up their account to “Sign In with Google” via the Connected Services page in Settings.

After enabling these settings users can use the new Google sign-in option when logging into their Upwork account.

I am so happy VLAD DADDY gets to announce a cool feature and he won't have to deal with the hysteria that is the connects thread.

Hi Kriszan,

 

The option to enable or disable Sign in with Google is under Settings> Connected Services. It looks like you were able to find and change the setting. Let us know if you have any further questions.

I don't see an option to disable the feature.

This is what it looks like in "Settings".

Hi Ela,

 

The option to disconnect the feature is available for users who have set up Google Sign-in on their account. Could you please confirm if you've enabled this option on your end and would like to disable it?

Thanks, Vladimir.

No, I haven't set it up - I assumed there was an option to not see Google sign-in on the landing page anymore. 

I now see that this was a misunderstanding.
