The Access tab on a software factory project sets who can reach the live app:
| Mode | Who gets in |
|---|---|
| Open | Anyone. |
| Sign-in required | Anyone with a verified email. |
| Restricted | Only the people listed below. |
Who gets in when the app is restricted
- Project members, any role, viewer included. Invite someone to the project and they can sign in. No extra step.
- People in your organization.
- Allowed Emails on the Access tab. Use this for people who are not project members, such as customers.
- Grants from a connected sale (Kajabi, Stripe, Teachable, ThriveCart) or a manual grant.
People always sign in with their own email. A restricted app checks that the email is on one of these lists after it is verified.
Removing access
Remove a member from the project and their access ends on their next request. Remove an email from Allowed Emails, or revoke a grant, and the same applies.
Before you switch to restricted
Make sure the people who need the app are members or on Allowed Emails. You and your organization are always admitted.
