So i am trying to make login and password protected section as the first page in my perspective designer so that when you click on the login after a username and password it will bring you to the controls page of my designer. I am trying to have it so when i launch my page as a URL that my fist page in my designer will be password protected. The user using the interface will then have to type in his/her password in order to get to the next page. On ignition it says that i need an identity provider to do this. I am just wondering if it is possible just to simulate in some way without an identity provider.
On the gateway go to Config | Security | Users, Roles and add your user into the default. You may need to create some roles and assign those roles to the user.
To protect a view go to the Project Browser, right-click on the view, Configure View Permissions, and choose the roles.
Tip: “… that my fist page in my designer will be password protected …” No, you’re trying to set the first page in your application to be password protected.
