Method and system for declarative configuration of user self-registration and log in pages and processes for a service provider and automatic deployment of the same

A system comprising:

• a user system of an administrator of a particular service provider, comprising:
• a display configured to display a graphical user interface that includes a plurality of options for declaratively configuring different passwordless log in processes and corresponding passwordless log in pages for the particular service provider, wherein the graphical user interface is configured to receive:
• a first input to select one of the options to configure the passwordless log in process and the corresponding passwordless log in page for deployment by that particular service provider;
• a second input to specify a type of log in prompt associated with a user to be verified as part of the passwordless log in process for the service provider, wherein the type log in prompt defines how the user is identified and looked-up during the passwordless log in process for the service provider, and wherein the type of log in prompt is one of a plurality of different types of identifiers that can be specified by the administrator;
• and
• a third input to specify a type of authentication mechanism to define how the user will be authenticated as part of the passwordless log in process for the service provider, wherein the type of authentication mechanism defines how the user will be authenticated as part of the passwordless log in process for that service provider, wherein the type of authentication mechanism is one of a plurality of different types of authentication mechanisms that can be specified by the administrator;
• and
• a server system in communication with the user system, wherein server system comprises:
• an application platform is configured to receive the first input, the second input, and the third input, and to generate the passwordless log in page based on the first input, the second input and the third input, wherein the passwordless log in page comprises features and logic for the passwordless log in process that are customized for that particular service provider.

A computing system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a display configured to display a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface comprising:
• a first user interface element that presents a plurality of options for declaratively configuring different passwordless log in processes and corresponding passwordless log in pages for a particular service provider, wherein the graphical user interface is configured to receive a first input to select one of the plurality of options to configure a passwordless log in process and a corresponding passwordless log in page for automatic deployment by the particular service provider;
• a second user interface element configured to receive a second input to declaratively specify a type of log in prompt associated with a user to be authenticated as part of the passwordless log in process for the service provider, wherein the type of log in prompt is one of a plurality of different types of log in prompts that can be specified, wherein each type of log in prompt defines how the user is identified and looked-up during the passwordless log in process for that service provider;
• and
• a third user interface element configured to receive a third input to declaratively specify a type of authentication mechanism to define how the user will be authenticated as part of the passwordless log in process for the service provider after entering information at the specified log in prompt, wherein the type of authentication mechanism is one of a plurality of different types of authentication mechanisms that can be specified by the administrator, and
• wherein the processor is configured to communicate the first input, the second input, and the third input to a server system that comprises an application platform, wherein the application platform is configured to generate the corresponding passwordless log in page based on the first input, the second input and the third input, wherein the corresponding passwordless log in page comprises features and logic for the passwordless log in process that are customized for that particular service provider.
