Security Provider fundamentals

See how Security Providers drive login sessions, action restrictions, and protected page flows across a Wappler project.

Use this bridge to connect the pieces of Wappler security that beginners often see separately: the shared provider configuration, the login flow that creates session state, the restricted routes or pages that depend on it, and the protected Server Connect actions that enforce that state.

In Demo Projects HQ the provider is not abstract. It is a Database provider named security, backed by the users table, with password verification enabled and an admin permission derived from the role column. That makes it a strong reference example for the most common real-world setup.

Security Provider fundamentals

Start with the shared provider layer, then follow it into the Demo Projects HQ login flow, page restriction, and secure server actions.

Start here

Setting up Site Security Settings

Understand Wappler Security Providers, provider types, and the shared settings that power login and access control across a project.

Using Globals in Server Connect

Use Globals in Server Connect to manage shared project settings such as database connections, security providers, mailer settings, and other reusable server-side configuration.

Login: Create a Working User Login Page

See the real Demo Projects HQ login flow, from the page form to the shared Security Provider.

Continue into protected flows

Security: Restricting Access to Your Page

Use the App Root security properties to understand shared layout protection, page-specific access rules, and the inspector fields that control login and permission redirects.

Server Connect Actions: Session & Cookie inputs

Understand session vs cookie data, how they relate to login/auth, and how to use them as inputs in actions.

Demo walkthrough: User update (routing + session + security)

Use the real users/update.json action in Demo Projects HQ to connect route params, session context, permissions, and a secure database update.

Security and Login

Start here for security-aware workflows in Wappler: session context, login-related server logic, and safe state handling.
