Logged-in users: Users must log in with their credentials to access the portal.
Specific user access levels: Assign users individual roles with varying access permissions.
All team members: Grant access to all members of your Formaloo team.
Specific team access levels: Define access levels for specific team members.
⭐ Pro tip:
Enable user Sign-up: In 'Settings' of user portal, choose "Allow new users to sign up" to allow self-registration for your portal.
By utilizing these options, you can effectively manage user access levels and create a secure and controlled environment within your Formaloo app's portal.
Additional Tips:
Consider using specific user roles for granular control over user permissions.
Enabling user sign-up allows for self-registration, but remember to manage new user approvals if necessary.
