Enabling App Pin

General Q&A
1

Hi,

I remember there was an option to enable a high level pin for an app. Then the user need to type this pin every time they need to access the app. How do you enable this and is there any documentation for this functionality?

Kind regards,
David

This is controlled in the app’s config.json directly:

"protection": {
    "type": "pin",
    "source_protection": true
}

You can use autocomplete to explore the available options (this feature is currently undocumented).

Probably the biggest caveat is that there is no forgot PIN/Password flow, and a user will need to be re-enrolled if they forget their PIN/Password.

It’s possible to implement an app-level PIN screen and then add custom forgot PIN functionality.
