The Signup Settings section is where you manage your whitelisted or blacklisted users.

Whitelist is a security feature that limits access to your app to those who have been pre-approved, while Blacklist blocks specific users from accessing your app. These features have high security by default, as only trusted entities are allowed.

These features are the best for school/university and business employee apps.

Configuration

Signup Filter

From the admin menu, click ‘Signup Filter’.

Turn the toggle on to activate your whitelist

Creating Whitelist & Blacklist via SignUp Patterns

Now it's time to add the signup pattern that allows your app to figure out who can access it by specific patterns in the user’s signup ID and automatically add this user to the whitelist or blacklist:

Select the pattern operator.

Add the pattern.

👉

If you chose Start With operator and specified the pattern to be the word 'crr', that means any signup ID beginning with the word 'crr' will be automatically whitelisted.

👉

If you chose End With operator and specified the pattern to be the word '@ggt.com', that means any signup ID ending with the word '@ggt.com' will be automatically whitelisted.

👉

If you chose Contains operator and specified the pattern to be the word 'crr', that means any signup ID containing the word ’crr' will be automatically whitelisted.

👉

Regular Expression is a pattern that matches multiple characters.

If you chose the Regular Expression operator and specified the pattern to be the word '$', that means any signup ID containing the expression '$' will be automatically whitelisted.

Choose the action:

If you want your pattern choice for whitelisted users, choose ‘Allow’.

If you want your pattern choice for blacklisted users, choose ‘Block’.

Assign a tag for this pattern.

👉

You can have multiple patterns, and each one can have a unique tag.

For instance, if you have a school app, users with the pattern ‘@ggt.com’ will have the tag 'Student’, and users with the pattern ‘@cct.com’ will have the tag ‘Teacher’.

Then, click ‘Add’ to see your listed patterns.

Creating Whitelist & Blacklist via SignUp ID

First, decide whether to add the signup ID to your blacklist or whitelist.

Then, click ‘Add’.

For Whitelist, add the user's Signup ID, choose a tag, and click ‘Save’.
