Hi,
I tried searching the discussions but could not find anything like this being
discussed.
I'm looking into having users login into my app via an link/URL they receive
via email. They just get an link no separate username and password. When the
link is accessed they are logged in normally. The link would look like
something like this: my.website.com/longhash4324kljhasdfasd9f87ads
Does web2py already contain this function?

Hi,
I would write the hash somewhere in the filesystem, create a controller to
verify the hash, then use Auth.login_user() to authenticate the user.
Having said that, please note that it is a (very) bad idea, since a "man in the
middle" could easily intercept the mail and hack the session.
