So there's this new feature letting your users use any kind of account to logon with Autodesk.

Autodesk third-party login: Overview and benefits

Looks like there's no way to control this?

From what I understand, this feature is mainly controlled at the Autodesk account/identity management level, so individual users usually don’t have much direct control over which third-party providers are enabled by default. It’s typically managed by the admin or the platform’s authentication settings.

The main benefit here seems to be reduced login friction and better flexibility for users across different services. I’ve also written a small breakdown of similar authentication updates and user impact on my site, where I track digital platform changes, which might be useful for anyone exploring this topic in more detail.

If you're referring to signing in with a third-party account such as Google, Apple, or Microsoft, it's generally a convenient option as long as the account is properly secured with a strong password and two-factor authentication. Many organizations also prefer using single sign-on because it simplifies user management and reduces password-related issues.

That said, it's still important to make sure the third-party account remains active and under your control, since losing access to it could affect your Autodesk sign-in as well. For business environments, having a clear authentication policy and recovery process can help avoid access problems in the future.
