Connect Account - You need to select user id and password based login or you can use OAuth for accessing your account as well (currently we support Google, Apple & Github as our OAuth Provider)
- Once login is successful you can view your devices and nodes associated with the account
For OAuth you will be asked to provide permission to vscode to open url and you also need to provide permission to the broswer to open vscode back once the OAuth flow is done.
