What you need​

  1. In the Casdoor admin console, open the edit page of the application.

  2. In Tags, add the tags whose users may sign in.

    Tags field of the application

  3. Save the application.

How Casdoor matches tags​

The tag of a user can hold several tags, separated by commas, for example dev,qa,staging. Casdoor splits the value and allows the sign-in if any one of the tags is a tag of the application.

For example, an application has the tags dev and staging. Users with dev, with staging, or with dev,qa can sign in. A user with prod can't.

The following users aren't restricted:

  • Administrators of the organization and global administrators
  • Users and applications of the built-in organization

The tag guest-user is reserved for guest users. A guest user receives the tag normal-user after setting a username or a password.
