Users tab
Manage users in your app’s Users tab.
The Users tab can be accessed from the left-hand toolbar. Here you can see a list of users that exist in your application.
Sync users with a data source
You can manage users entirely in Softr or sync users with an external data source. By connecting to an external data source, you get to use additional custom fields to create user groups and application logic.
Add user(s)
You can add users manually by clicking on the Add user(s) button. Adding users directly to Softr will also create them in your connected datasource. Softr will prompt you to send them an optional invitation email as well.
Manager users
By selecting users you want to manage, you will be presented with a list of actions:
- Generate a magic link for the selected users.
- Resend invite emails to the selected users.
- Download the user list as a CSV file.
- Delete the selected users.
Manage magic link
With Magic Link, you can generate a unique token for your users to log into your Softr app without manually signing in with a password. This can be handy when you create a user in the Users section and need them to sign in for the first time. Later on, the user can set up the account info in User Profile and sign in the usual way.
Let's see how that works.
Generating magic link
First, you need to select the users you want to generate the link for (using the checkboxes in the first column).
After selecting the users, click Generate Magic Links under the Actions menu.
Copy magic link
After generating the link, you can copy it using the copy button.
Regenerate magic link
You can regenerate any user's Magic Link at any time using the regenerate button as shown below.
Delete a Magic Link
You can also revoke/delete a magic link by clicking on the trash can icon:
Use magic link
That's it, now you can send the link to the user you've generated it for. As soon as the user click's on the link or pastes it in the browser address bar, he/she will access your site in logged-in state.
