MANAGE MOBSTED PWA APP USER ACCESS
App users get access to app by common or personal access links (URLs) distributed via distribution mechanism.
You can define user access rules and restrictions in Security section of the platform. The setup is to be done for each of your apps on the platform.
App user access security settings allows to:
Define which users can access the app
Anyone without registration: anyone with URL can access the app
Anyone after registration and authentication: anyone with URL can open the app but gets access after authentication
Note: when any of the above option is set you will get Common Access Link (URL) and QR code with URL appearing on the top left.
Only those added by me: each user gets a unique URL and accesses the app after authentication.
Note: this option requires to create user in Objects, user’s unique URL will be generated in LoginUrl field.
2. Define user authentication method and rules
Platform supports two basic authentication methods:
Email: user will be requested to enter email address to receive one-time access code. The code is set to be active for 300 sec.
SMS: user will be requested to enter phone number to receive one-time access code. The code is set to be active for 180 sec.
Note: these options require to create user in Objects and fill in Email or Phone fields with user’s email address or phone number.
Authentication via Email or SMS is automatically set to be active for 3 months, you can change the period in Account settings by clicking Set another lifetime button.

This option allows to limit the time the user is inactive in the app and set additional steps to grant access:
