Auth

Auth is the authentication and identity service for your product. It handles signing users in, their accounts, and their sessions, so you don’t have to build or run that part yourself.

What you can do

• Sign users in and let them create accounts
• Manage sessions and accounts
• Run hosted auth apps for your end-user accounts
• Manage collaborators and shared access where it applies

Two kinds of accounts

Keep these separate as you read:

• Your smbCloud account — how you sign in to the platform.
• Auth app users — the end users who sign in to your product through an auth app you run on smbCloud.

When a screen or guide talks about “users”, check which of the two it means.

Getting started

1. Create an auth app for your product.
2. Wire your app to its sign-in and account flows.
3. Manage users and access from the console.

Building against Auth from code? The SDKs live in the Developer section.
