Element: Login
This element represents a login form. It contains the most common fields that are needed to perform a login operation: email and password.
User management in Appli
Every Appli project has its own database. Besides the tables created
by the developer, all projects have a cdbUser table that is
used to keep user accounts.
Use elements such as Create Account,
Login, and
the actions under the User Accounts
category to craft your own interface to handle user management
workflows.
The User Management Tutorial explores the topic in more depth and is recommended reading.
Events
Login elements have a mouseUp event that can be configured using low-code. This event is triggered when the user clicks or touches the Login button.
