Admin Portal

Configuring users

Admin Portal authentication is done entirely through a passwordless flow, using a link sent through email. The email address must be listed in the adminSettings:admins user secret to be authorized.

If you’ve followed the Server Setup Guide this should already be configured and will default to [email protected]. If not, please go back and configure it now.
