I am working on a Vision client for use on the factory floor. The main landing page shows the current status of the line. It is capable of overriding certain functions to control line flow. I want to restrict those actions behind a login. Is there a way to do this? I envision an auto-login with view permissions, but then needing to present credentials when attempting to access the windows/functions that allow modification. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you. ---

Hi Mike, welcome to the forum. 🙂 Use of [system.security.switchUser()](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/system.security.switchUser) should help. Setting security on the items you wish to affect should do the rest. If you need extra inspiration, make a throwaway project using a Vision Tab Nav template. In the navigation window you will see lock screen / switch user / logout options. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/8/f/8f00294cdf8e656d8bc11e9f69f4f841481e87a3.png)
