v11.3: Easy Login #8639
Description
@claude - Let's update the Mattermost Product Documentation to reflect the system admin's and end user's product experience from Mattermost server v11.3 onward captured via these 2 Engineering PRs:
- Magic link (passwordless) authentication for guests mattermost#34264
- Easy Login mattermost-mobile#9261
This task supports a SINGLE documentation PR covering both administrator and end-user updates.
Audience:
System administrato]
End users (guest users only)
Context:
Mattermost v11.3 introduces a new passwordless “easy login” (magic link) experience for guest users.
This is a P1 documentation update focused on clarity and expectation-setting.
The goal is to update existing documentation to reflect the new capability without introducing security, compliance, or buyer claims.
STRICT RULES (DO NOT VIOLATE):
Do NOT make security, compliance, or risk posture claims.
Do NOT imply default behavior unless explicitly stated in the Engineering PRs.
Do NOT include buyer-facing, marketing, or competitive language.
Do NOT invent configuration options, flags, UI labels, or workflows not explicitly described in the PRs.
Keep admin and end-user content clearly separated.
If information is unclear or not explicitly confirmed in the PRs, flag it as:
[REQUIRES HUMAN JUDGMENT]
Task:
Produce a draft with the following clearly labeled sections:
Admin-facing updates

Clarify whether and how this capability is controlled or enabled
State explicitly what this change does NOT do or imply
Avoid security or compliance guarantees
End-user-facing updates
Explain what has changed for guest users when logging in
Explain what has not changed
Set clear expectations for the login experience
Provide guidance on what to do if login does not work as expected
