How to view user password?

Hi there,

I am still a beginner for Bubble and I was wondering is there a way to get access/ view the user’s password information. When I go to the Data>App Data, it displays email, unique id and etc, but I can’t seem to get the password.

I’m aware that Bubble hides the user password for security purposes and it is a bad practice to display the password. Since the website I’m doing is ONLY for assignment purposes, user security is not that important for me.

I hope I can get an answer.
Thank you.

Not possible, unfortunately…

You can create an use your own authentication system. But the level of security will not be the same

Do you have any references or guides that I can follow?

I am still new to Bubble and need a bit of guidance.

Thank you.

Just create your own process by using condition and a text field to store password.
When user log in, check if password = Do a search for user (email = input email) first item.
If yes, log in, if not show an error message.
But honestly, I don’t know why you want to do that? I don’t really see a good reason to use a custom auth workflow in your case.

I addition to Jicy, i think that you can achieve that creating inside the User “table”, a field of type text, and name it “password” or the name that you want.

Then, when the user sign up, on the workflow step: “create a new thing”, save the value of the password input in the new password field created by you.

I suggest you to inform that to your users too.

Regards,

Juan

If you could elaborate on how to do this, I would appreciate it. I am building an app for internal use, so I will be creating the users through the app data entry tool and will not have a “sign up” function, only a “log in” function. Because the app data and entry tool do not allow to see the password or make one for the user, it is making this difficult.

Check out this video, you can assign a temp password to a user that can be displayed in plain text.
