What happens when you link your Office Timeline account with Microsoft or Google?

Overview 

When you log in to Office Timeline using your Microsoft or Google account (by selecting “Continue with xxxxxxx”), your accounts are connected. This allows you to effortlessly access Office Timeline and manage your account using your Microsoft/Google credentials. In this section, we will clarify how account linking functions and address any common questions you might have.

Understanding account linking 

  1. Connecting your Office Timeline account with Microsoft or Google accounts allows you to log in using your Microsoft/Google credentials. We do not receive or store your account passwords, nor do we have access to your Microsoft/Google products.

  2. If you’ve originally signed up to Office Timeline with a local account (using a standalone Office Timeline password), linking that account with Microsoft/Google will not replace your old login credentials. You can choose to sign in either with your local Office Timeline password or with your connected account(s).
  3. If you have a local Office Timeline account (with a standalone password) and want to link it with Microsoft/Google, select “Continue with xxxxxxx” when logging in, and then make sure to pick the account that has the same email address as the one you use for Office Timeline. 

Frequently Asked Questions 

How can I unlink my account from Office Timeline? 

You can unlink your account from Office timeline by changing your email address from your Account Settings. When you change the email associated with your Office Timeline account, the link with Microsoft/Google is broken, as it relies on the original address you used. Learn more about what changing your email involves.

If you wish to unlink your account due to leaving your company, ensure you make the change while you still have access to your Microsoft or Google inbox. We will send a confirmation code there for security purposes before updating your account.

Can I relink Office Timeline to a different Microsoft/Google account? 

Yes. To do so, go to Account Settings and change your email address to the one that’s associated with the account you want to link. Then, on your next login, choose “Continue with xxxxxxx” to relink your account with Office Timeline.

What if I forget my Microsoft/Google password? 

If you’ve originally signed up to Office Timeline with a local account (using a standalone Office Timeline password), you can log in locally instead of through Microsoft/Google. If you don’t have a local Office Timeline password, you’ll need to reset your password through Microsoft/Google’s recovery process.
