Q: Patrick, I would like now to ask what application is in your product?
From what I can see right now it is not possible to segregate access to app different pages. A user can see all application pages, is that right?
Thanks in advance

Hey Ascar,
If I'm understanding correctly, are you asking about the limitation of '1 App' on our Starter plan?
We have a feature on our upcoming roadmap to allow users to create multiple 'Apps' which would be able to have their own domains, pages, navigation, etc.
Right now, our system is just for one single app, with multiple pages, etc.
However, we do have a feature called Display Conditions which you can use to segment the pages that users see based on the data that is available.
For example, one common data source is the 'Active User Data', which allows you to access information about your currently logged in app user.
Another example would be if you made a request to a Google Sheet to get information about that user, and then trigger a page to only display if a user's role equals 'ADMIN'.
I think we're missing a help article on this feature, so I'll make sure to get that added ASAP.
For now, if you go into a Page on the General tab, you will see that there is a Display Conditions feature which determines the page's visibility in the app.
If you create an app Navigation item in your sidebar or header with the same 'route' as your page, that Navigation item will also display conditionally based on the rules of the page.
I hope that helps, but if you have specific questions feel free to reach out via support@frontlyapp.com
Talk soon,
Patrick
AscarThanks Patrick. This is helpful.
If I may rephrase my question and assumptions - can I create some web application pages with different fields and datasets and limit access to these pages for different users?
On the other note - those new features you mention you have on your roadmap - will they be available to the people who you are granting AppSumo free license?
I feel that 1 application may not cut it for me and I can't pay $29/month for a bigger plan. On the other hand I don't want to cheat by using fake/phantom/dormant AppSumo accounts to redeem the deal.
Thanks in advance

Yes, with our Display Conditions feature, you can create multiple different pages with different data and limit them to specific users or roles.
