2. Authorization

Kuika offers the option of authorization for your users in the application screens you develop in the form of Anonymous Access, All Roles Access.

Anonymous Access: It is the part of the screen where the user is allowed to log in without asking for account information. For example, since there is no obligation to enter the user password on the reset password page of the application you developed, you must activate the Anonymous Access option on the Forgot Password page.

All Roles Access: This is the part of the screen where user account information is queried. Pages are redirected according to the verification of user account information. If you want to verify the account information of the users in the applications you have developed, you need to activate the All Roles Access offered by Kuika on your screen. With All Roles Acces, you can assign new Roles from the +New Role section under All Roles to ensure which users can see and not see the elements on the screen and on-screen directions.
