Username query string parameter no longer works on Sign-in page (worked in 2023 version)

Question

Hi, In our previous Adaxes Web Interface version (2023), we used to pre-fill the username field on the Sign-in page via URL query string, e.g.:

https://.../customWebInterface/SignIn?username=SomeUsername

After upgrading to the latest version, the Sign-in page changed to a two-step flow (username → password), and the username query parameter is no longer read — the field stays empty.

The same username parameter still works correctly on the SelfPasswordReset page (e.g. .../SelfPasswordReset?username=SomeUsername).

So the parameter seems to work only on the Self-Service Password Reset flow now, not on the standard Sign-in flow.

Could you confirm:

• Was this intentionally removed from the Sign-in step for security reasons?
• Is there any supported alternative to pre-fill or bypass the username step on Sign-in?

Thanks!

Hello,

Was this intentionally removed from the Sign-in step for security reasons?

Yes, that is correct.

Is there any supported alternative to pre-fill or bypass the username step on Sign-in?

Unfortunately, there is no such possibility and there are no plans for anything like that.
