GGID Links give players access to Directories and Portals. Why use GGID Links instead of normal Portal and Directory Links? Unlike normal Portal and Directory links, GGID Links also log the player into the Portal or Directory using a GGID. If the pages on a Portal are private, then the players accessing the portal using a GGID Link will not be prompted to log in. This ensures a seamless and easy way for players to view private Portals.
When to Use GGID Links:
Customers who do not have SSO enabled and would like to link event and league registration pages, private Portals, and Directories anywhere (e.g.., club website, emails, newsletters)
Customers who do have SSO enabled (except Clubessential, which should use SSO Links instead) and would like to link private Portals and Directories anywhere outside their club website (e.g.., emails).
Types of GGID Links:
There are several types of GGID Links. As mentioned, these links will provide your players access to Directories and Portal.
These are the available GGID Links:
Directory: If using Directories, this link will log the viewer in, and direct them to the specific directory of events and/or leagues.
Member Portal: This GGID Link will log the viewers in, and direct them to the portal for that event/league.
Registration: If using Event and League Registration, this link will log the viewers in, and direct them to the registration page for that event/league.
Important Note: GGID Links will give players general login credentials but our system will not know specifically who the player is. Because of this, players may need to validate themselves by answering a custom question during the registration process. If you are an SSO customer, you may want to send an SSO Link instead.
