Midjourney Login Failed: How to Fix Sign In Errors

Updated 10/18/2026

If you cannot sign in to the Midjourney web app or authorize the generator bot, the issue is almost always caused by a broken connection between your web browser and your Discord account. Because Midjourney relies on Discord’s secure OAuth2 protocol for member authentication, any mismatch in active browser sessions, corrupted local caches, or restrictive privacy extensions will prevent a successful login.

Use this step-by-step guide to diagnose and resolve Midjourney authentication and sign-in failures.

1. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies Corrupted temporary data in your browser often breaks the handshake protocol between Discord and Midjourney. This usually results in an endless redirect loop where clicking "Sign In" simply refreshes the login page.

  1. Open your browser settings and navigate to the Privacy, Search, and Services or History menu.
  2. Click on Clear Browsing Data.
  3. Select Cookies and other site data along with Cached images and files.
  4. Set the time range to All Time or Everything.
  5. Click Clear Data, restart your web browser, and try logging in to Midjourney again.

2. Check for Discord Account Mismatches Midjourney subscriptions are bound strictly to a single Discord account. If your browser is logged into a secondary, inactive, or alt Discord account, Midjourney will attempt to sign in using those credentials, leading to authorization errors or missing subscription details.

  1. Open a new browser tab and navigate directly to [Discord.com/app](https://discord.com/app).
  2. Look at your avatar in the bottom-left corner to verify which account is currently active.
  3. If it is the incorrect account, click the User Settings (gear icon), scroll to the bottom of the menu, and click Log Out.
  4. Log back in using the precise credentials of the Discord account connected to your Midjourney plan.
  5. Return to the Midjourney site and initiate the login sequence.

3. Test with an Incognito or Private Window To bypass any local configuration issues, tracking protection setups, or corrupt local storage without permanently clearing your browser history, use an isolated private browsing session.

  1. Open an Incognito window (Chrome/Edge: Ctrl+Shift+N or Cmd+Shift+N; Firefox: Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P).
  2. Navigate to [Midjourney.com](https://www.midjourney.com).
  3. Click Sign In and manually type your Discord credentials when prompted.
  4. If this resolves the issue, a browser extension, cookie, or local configuration in your standard profile is causing the block.

4. Disable Conflicting Browser Extensions Aggressive ad-blockers, tracking protection suites, and script-blocking extensions can misidentify the background API redirects between Discord and Midjourney as malicious trackers, blocking them entirely.

  1. Access your browser's extensions manager (typically located under the puzzle piece icon or settings menu).
  2. Temporarily turn off ad-blockers (such as uBlock Origin or AdBlock Plus) and privacy-focused suites (such as Privacy Badger).
  3. If you run security extensions like NoScript, ensure that scripts from both midjourney.com and discord.com are whitelisted.
  4. Disable any active third-party proxy or browser-based VPN tools.
  5. Refresh the login page and test.

5. Verify and Reset Your Discord Password Because Midjourney does not manage password creation or storage directly, password reset functions must be executed through Discord's infrastructure.

  1. Navigate to the official [Discord Login Screen](https://discord.com/login).
  2. Enter your registered email address and click the Forgot your password? link directly below the password input field.
  3. Open your email inbox, find the automated verification message sent by Discord, and click the reset link.
  4. Create a strong, new password.
  5. Once updated, log in to Discord successfully in your web browser first, then open a separate tab to authorize Midjourney.

When to escalate If you successfully authorize Discord but encounter a completely blank screen, or if you receive a specific "unauthorized" screen immediately after logging in, your account may have an internal database synchronization issue.

If you still have access to the Discord application, join the official Midjourney Discord server and ask for help in the #member-support channel. If you cannot access Discord at all, email Midjourney's customer support directly at billing@midjourney.com. Make sure to send the email from the address registered to your Discord account and include your exact Discord username.
