Authentication

Most apps need a login. In Vorx it's one step: ask for it, and the sign-up, sign-in, session handling, and protected routes are generated together.

Turn on sign-in

Tell Vorx how people should authenticate and what needs a login:

Add email and Google sign-in. Require login for everything except the landing page.

Email/password, magic links, and social providers are supported. Passwords, verification, and resets are handled for you.

Roles and permissions

Describe the roles your app's users need and what each can do:

Admins manage users and settings; members only see their own records.

Vorx enforces those rules both in the UI and in the database, so a role isn't just a hidden button.

These are roles inside the app you're building — separate from the roles on your Vorx workspace, which control who can build.

Data scoped to the user

By default, records are scoped to the signed-in user, so people only ever see their own data. You can widen that deliberately — "everyone on a team shares the same projects" — when you need to.

Manage your app's users

Open Settings → Cloud → Users to see the accounts in your app, check that a sign-up worked, and remove test accounts before launch.

Test users

Apps with auth come with a test user so you can click through signed-in flows in the preview without creating an account. Vorx uses the same test user when it verifies each build.

Social sign-in

Google and Microsoft sign-in use your own OAuth credentials, so the consent screen shows your app's name rather than ours. Set them up under Settings → Cloud → Social login — and note they only complete on a published URL, not in the preview. See Social login.

Branded emails

Sign-in and verification emails can be sent from your own domain — set that up under Settings → Cloud → Email. See Custom emails.

Before you launch

Sign up as a brand-new user in the preview and confirm a protected page actually redirects when signed out. It's the single check most worth doing by hand — see the launch checklist.

Enterprise sign-in

Need SSO (SAML/OIDC) or SCIM provisioning for a larger org? Contact us — those are available on enterprise plans.
