[IGN-2083]Webdev file resource security

Ignition

Hi,

Anyone with the access URL can read the file in a web browser.
Is there any method to secure access ? With basic auth for example.

Thanks

No, unfortunately this isn’t currently possible, but I’ve linked this thread to the existing feature request we had in our backlog.

For now, I would say a Python endpoint (with security) serving up the files would be the way to go.

Wrong topic probably ups

You can install an uri (on windows) that works for browsers (not the app)
You gotta unzip and run it (as admin) on every client pc tho

registerExplorerURIScheme.zip (286 Bytes)

this one goes like so, i use the link component to open in a new tab:
explorer:C:\yourfile.txt

Thanks
What do you mean by Python endpoint ? Use Python resource in Webdev ?
