Go to hackathon

i have a question on signing up up. if someone gets my endpoint cant he go to my console and sign up to another account? How is the security there?

TL;DR

Solution: The user can disable console signup by setting the `_APP_CONSOLE_ALLOW_USER_REGISTRATION` environment variable to `false`. This means that only the user with access to the console can create accounts. The default limit for console signups is 1, but this can be changed by modifying the `_APP_CONSOLE_USER_REGISTRATION_LIMIT` environment variable. However, it is still possible for someone to access the endpoint and register another account. To enhance security, it is recommended to make sure the project is private and only add trusted members as collaborators.

your project is private to your email unless you add members

if you go to the endpoint it takes you to the register page

so if one accesses my endpoint then he is able to register another account and create other projects?

yes

isnt that an issue.?

you can add a user limit to your server

the default is 1 I believe

so only you can use the console if the limit isn't changed

so it means no one can signup again?

okay then.

thanks for the info

Refer to the _APP_CONSOLE_* environment variables: https://appwrite.io/docs/environment-variables#general
