I am trying to build an app that has multiple types of users. Each user will be taken to a different type of “profile page” so each user type needs to be independent from the other. Can anyone explain to me how to set up multiple users?
Hello @realinfo.lantyrn welcome to the forum!
I posted some comments here:
You can consider:
User type: standard, admin
User role: role1, role2, etc
All standard users can take on different roles… demand side1, demand side2: supply side1, supply side2, etc. An admin user manages the app.

Hi there, @realinfo.lantyrn … along with @cmarchan ’s comments, maybe my response in a similar thread could be helpful, too?
Hi there, @hacker … others may disagree, of course, but I don’t think there is a correct/best way to have admin users… it’s all about what works best for your app. That being said, when I need functionality that is similar to what you have described, I almost always go with a role field in the User data type, and I tie that field to an option set that defines the roles. With that setup in place, it’s easy to add new roles at any time, and it’s also pretty easy to control functionality with condit…
Best…
Mike
