After your account is created, you and can an additional login method. You can’t remove a login method after it’s added.

:::{caution}
When you have both a password-based login and a social login like Google or Microsoft set up, logging in with Google or Microsoft will unset your password-based login password. The next time you use password-based login, you'll be forced to reset your password.
:::

## Enable password-based login [ec_enable_password_based_login]

To enable password-based login in addition to Google or Microsoft sign-in, go to the [Forgot password](https://cloud.elastic.co/forgot) page and enter your email address. This will trigger the forgot password flow and will allow you to create a password for your account.
