## Set up Double Puppeting
|
||||
|
||||
If you'd like to use [Double Puppeting](https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-hangouts/wiki/Authentication#double-puppeting) (hint: you most likely do), you have 2 ways of going about it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Method 1: automatically, by enabling Shared Secret Auth
|
||||
|
||||
The bridge will automatically perform Double Puppeting if you enable [Shared Secret Auth](configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md) for this playbook.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the recommended way of setting up Double Puppeting, as it's easier to accomplish, works for all your users automatically, and has less of a chance of breaking in the future.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Method 2: manually, by asking each user to provide a working access token
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**: This method for enabling Double Puppeting can be configured only after you've already set up bridging (see [Usage](#usage)).
|
||||
|
||||
When using this method, **each user** that wishes to enable Double Puppeting needs to follow the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
- retrieve a Matrix access token for yourself. You can use the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
curl \
|
||||
--data '{"identifier": {"type": "m.id.user", "user": "YOUR_MATRIX_USERNAME" }, "password": "YOUR_MATRIX_PASSWORD", "type": "m.login.password", "device_id": "Mautrix-Hangouts", "initial_device_display_name": "Mautrix-Hangouts"}' \
|
||||
https://matrix.DOMAIN/_matrix/client/r0/login
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- send the access token to the bot. Example: `login-matrix MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE`
|
||||
|
||||
- make sure you don't log out the `Mautrix-Hangouts` device some time in the future, as that would break the Double Puppeting feature
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Once the bot is enabled you need to start a chat with `Hangouts bridge bot` with handle `@hangoutsbot:YOUR_DOMAIN` (where `YOUR_DOMAIN` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).

Once logged in, recent chats should show up as new conversations automatically. Other chats will get portals as you receive messages.
|
||||
|

You can learn more about authentication from the bridge's [official documentation on Authentication](https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-hangouts/wiki/Authentication).
