Where you go after signing in
Last updated: 7/9/2026
Where you land after sign-in depends on whether you used email or Google and whether onboarding is still required.
Where does sign-in take me?
Email sign-in sends you to /dashboard. Google OAuth sends you to /projects/new. If onboarding is incomplete, OnboardingGuard redirects you to /onboarding with a returnUrl so you can come back afterward.
Post sign-in destinations
Sign In >>> Dashboard or Projects >>> Onboarding (if needed)
Prerequisites: Successful sign-in.
Step 1. Email and password sign-in
You are routed to /dashboard.
From there you can open projects, videos, and settings.
Step 2. Google sign-in
You are routed to /projects/new after OAuth.
Step 3. Onboarding redirect
If requiresOnboarding is true, you are sent to /onboarding?returnUrl=....
returnUrl is the page you were trying to open.
Step 4. After onboarding is done or skipped
You return to returnUrl or default to /projects/new.
Key points to consider
Auth pages (/signin, /signup, /reset-password, /new-password) never trigger onboarding guard redirects.
