Login users via autogenerated link

Hi, I need to log-in users to WP from a different platform using a link.
Leaving aside the issue of matching other-platform users with WP ones, I need to generate auto-login links for all of them.

I have found and tested two plugins, but neither is easily usable for what I need to achieve:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/autologin-links/
This one saves the link on db, so I could easily read them, but doesn’t generate links automatically for each users, it needs the link generation is manually requested via a button on each user page.

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/user-login-magic-links/
This one seems (from my understanding) to have links ready for each users, but it seems it doesn’t save links in db but to create them “on the fly” encrypting some user data.
Also, it seems links should expire after a given time, but this feature doesn’t seem to work, a fact that makes me worry about other -less evident- things that could not work properly.

So, my question is:
Do you know other similar plugin that could I try to achieve my goal?

Also, I am possibly trying to solve the problem wrong and there is a better way to log in users into WP I should consider?

Please keep in mind that my understanding of PHP is very basic.
