One Time Login Link
The One-Time Login Link module generates secure, single-use login URLs for Drupal users through its user interface, a REST API, or Drush commands. It allows for configurable expiration and can be used to revoke links, track usage, and is protected by rate limiting.
The One-Time Login Link module provides secure, single-use login URLs for Drupal users. It now includes a full REST API, OpenAPI/Swagger documentation, Drush commands, usage statistics, and link revocation, making it suitable for both UI and programmatic workflows.
