Use passkey to log in to Admin UI

About this task

The procedures guide you in using a passkey to log in to Admin UI. The procedures involve:

  • signing up with passkey
  • logging in to Admin UI using a passkey
  • clearing the passkey

Passkeys are better options to passwords as they use public key cryptography to create secure experiences. Passkeys allow sign-in to websites without remembering and managing passwords by using a biometric sensor, PIN, or pattern. For more information, see passkey.org.

Prerequisites

  • You have set up iCloud Keychain to create a passkey.
  • You have an Apple ID to set up iCloud Keychain.
  • Your Mac has a Touch ID sensor.

Note

Passkeys from iCloud Keychain aren't yet available in Chrome on macOS.

For Windows

  • You have set up Windows Hello as Chrome on Windows stores passkeys in Windows Hello.
  • Your Windows machine supports the Windows Hello options.
