Is there a way to email users to create a lakefs account, rather than generate credentials and pass them around?

Hey Sid! It sounds like an interesting feature. Unfortunately, we don’t have this option at the moment.

If security is a concern, you may consider to grant each user with the `auth:CreateCredentials` and `auth:DeleteCredentials` permissions for their user ID. You can then ask them to create another set of credentials on their first login, and delete the existing one.

I understand this is not ideal and I’m sorry for your inconvenience. Will you consider opening a GitHub issue to reflect the necessity of this feature?

Done: <https://github.com/treeverse/lakeFS/issues/2925>

<@U01UL1A7QUE>, I would also like to point out that we support <https://docs.lakefs.io/reference/authorization.html#ldap-server|LDAP intergration>. This way, if you have an LDAP server, all users can use it to login to lakeFS.
