I created a new vision project in the designer, but when I try to open the project in the vision client launcher, it asks for a login/password.  
My personal login and password that I use in the gateway doesn't work (administrator).  
Which login do I use then? Where do I add users for a certain project? Is it possible not to use a login page, so the project starts automatically without a user/password?

I think I have the same problem as this person :  
[Vision login help - Ignition - Inductive Automation Forum](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/vision-login-help/70870)

But in there it doesn't say how to link a login to a vision project.

Found the problem :  
In the designer I had do to the following :  
Menu -\> project -\> project properties -\> General -\> change this one from "opcua module" to "default"

For posterity, this isn't _exactly_ possible in Vision - you must always be logged in as _someone_. But you can use auto login to automatically log in as a "guest" user, with very limited access, potentially, and create your own login page. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it, but it's not unheard of.

I encounter this almost everywhere, and use it myself. Helped out by the longstanding IA project example that uses this approach to implement an "auto log out".

This is how I prefer do it as well.

I use the same approach too, autologin with guest credential that means simple read-only project and custom login popup for role based interaction.
