- Shibboleth or OAuth has been enabled.
- ``:AllowSignUp`` is set to "false" per the :doc:`config` section to prevent users from creating local accounts via the web interface. Please note that local accounts can also be created via API, and the way to prevent this is to block the ``builtin-users`` endpoint or scramble (or remove) the ``BuiltinUsers.KEY`` database setting per the :doc:`config` section.
- The "builtin" authentication provider has been disabled. Note that disabling the builting auth provider means that the API endpoint for converting an account from a remote auth provider will not work. This is the main reason why https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2974 is still open. Converting directly from one remote authentication provider to another (i.e. from GitHub to Google) is not supported. Conversion from remote is always to builtin. Then the user initiates a conversion from builtin to remote. Note that longer term, the plan is to permit multiple login options to the same Dataverse account per https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/3487 (so all this talk of conversion will be moot) but for now users can only use a single login option, as explained in the :doc:`/user/account` section of the User Guide. In short, "remote only" might work for you if you only plan to use a single remote authentication provider such that no conversion between remote authentication providers will be necessary.
