Has anyone designed an app that requires a user to use a password to complete an action within the app? If so, how? Was there something in Kintone or did you have to use JS to code it.
I was playing around with some ideas and was curious.
I'm not sure of the full context behind your plan to implement a password for an app, but it seems like the native permission features—which allow you to control user access, such as editing specific fields, determining who can edit or view records based on process management status, etc.—might be sufficient to meet your requirements.
If these features aren’t enough, could you elaborate on what you're trying to achieve?
By the way, to answer your initial question about whether you can implement passwords within an app—it is relatively easy to do. However, if you implement it in JavaScript without obfuscating the process, the password could be exposed in DevTools and similar tools. Therefore, the key consideration is how to properly obfuscate the process.
I have an idea. If you just need the encryption for adding Record .I recommend this plugin Conditional Display - Kintone .But if you don't want access to the app at all, setting permissions might be a better solution.
