> don't have a form with just a login email and force the user to click to enter the password

This is required for any non trivial auth system though. You not know until the user is submitted if that user has a password or is using something else.

So what if we don't know? We can find out at the same time.

We're trying to authenticate a pair: user/pass.

  • There is no pair for the enterprise users signing in with their company's SSO or those using Passkey.

    I think what some sites do is have a visually hidden, not required password field that a password manager can fill in. If it's not a password-based auth, the flow goes to the next step but if it is, it reveals the password field which may already be filled in.

    • Aren't you leaking that there's an account with that email that has a non-password auth method if you treat them differently?
