Hi memberstack team,

I wanted to know regarding your login API feature.

We have our DB in mongo & postgress, and have about 1M+ user base on mobile App.
now we are planning to integrate login feature in our webflow base website, Our webflow lead has suggested us using memberstack for this feature. wanted to know how Memberstack will be able to handle our data & maintain 100% sync in user journey between App & website.

    Mongo and Postgres are 2 diferente databases. I think you would need to provide a little more info on your architecture, and how the data is related to each other to better advice.

    Memberstack acts as a micro-service, providing the whole functionality for authentication and authorization, and its own database for storing users data.

    Assuming you already have a user database and want those users to communicate with Webflow, there are a few options you could implement.

    1. Memberstack is not required. If you already have a user base, you could implement your auth endpoints in Webflow frontend. But probably the time to implement would be longer
    2. Sync Memberstack with your users. In your server automate it (with webhooks) so that any new users or user update keeps both your user DB and MS DB are i sync (adapting the SQL schema to Memberstack) and use Memberstack seamlessly in the frontend
    3. Use Memberstack as a standalone. Users from your DB wouldn't share credentials with MS users. And you would use Memberstack from scratch in Webflow

    More information about Memberstack API to ease with the integrations can be found here https://developers.memberstack.com/docs

    Admin is a main backend package
    Dom is the main frontend package

    If you wanted to use Memberstack you will have to use their own DB. Import your members to MS and keep the two (MS and yours) databases in sync
