Hey Guys, I’m developing a project that has two types of User profiles: Customers and Business Profiles. How would I go about creating this? I read though the documentation and says something about user types. The thing is tho, it seems that I would have to enter the user type into the spread sheet myself and also seems nigh impossible to give my sign up form a role type. So I just make a separate profile on the spread sheet for business users? ---

no… keep all users in one sheet called Users… add the column “type” and specify there. Use that column for filters and relations. ---

What @uzo said! I’ll share an example of a recent app I built that does this. ---

Okay, so I managed to get two separate users but I guess my only question is how to I design two separate profiles types under the User Profile tab? I should be able to do this. ---

- In the Users table, add a basic text column called `UserType`. - When a row is added, populate the column with `customer` or `business`. 1. either by hand after the add, 2. or via a choice component or switch (boolean and if-then-else columns) in the add form. ---

I see you are using Pages for your project… I stay as far as possible from pages…lol, they are way too limited. ---

You can set visibility conditions on components, based on the user type. This is a great use case for the container component in Pages. Put all user components in one container, and all business components in another container, then put a visibility condition on each container. ---

I see. Your saying to stack the the page in separate containers and have them appear to which user type is signed in? ---
