Is there a way to create a private chat feature where one user can chat with a specified group of users without others seeing the chat? Thanks in advance for your help. ---

Thanks, I will check it out. Can you use a template inside of another app design or does that template have to stand alone? Never used someone’s template before. ---

That’s a challenge. Unfortunately you can’t embed glideapps within each other for security reasons. You could try copying the logic from the template to your existing app bit by bit. Or start with the template and build you app around that. The downside of starting with the template is glideapps that start from a template can not be made “copyable”. ---

It’s a stand alone…you’d need to rebuild it to integrate it into your app. ---

Hi Bob, thanks for creating this template. Just a quick follow up, if that’s okay: are the chats protected so that only the users in the chats can view the information? In my use case, the chat feature only needs to be one-to-one (ideally with admin view), but unless I duplicate every chat row in two different tables, I can’t work out how I would secure the chats through row ownership ---

You can have multiple row owner columns in the same table. One can contain the user email, and the other can contain the admin email or role. ---

No. Actually, I want to start the project which will require many million of users so before starting, I must know if effectively, my app build with glide can allow me to do it. Otherwise, I will use another nocode app to do it ---

> **[Glide Pricing | Flexible No Code App Development Pricing](https://www.glideapps.com/pricing)** > > Find a flexible plan that scales with your business needs. Start for free and upgrade for more. Start for free and built AI-powered no code apps today. I would suggest checking the pricing page to see the limitations on each plan and see if Glide is the right pick for you. Personally, I think many milllion of users is a lot, so you might want to test with a small subset of that first, with your MVP built on Glide, then decide on the next steps. ---

Ok Thank you I’m so excited to know it. I see glide pricing but i was stunned to see that for the Business Plan, I can only have 1000 public users It’s for that reason that i ask if there exist for enterprise plan a possibility to have many million of public users. If yes, what is the price? Please, if it’s me which don’t understand, explain me more. Thank you ---
