Hi

Is it possible to add restrictions to certain pages/tabs like a members area?

Thanks

Not yet but we plan to do this (I can’t say when).

For now we suggest making multiple apps against the same sheet.

This is sort of possible. You currently can’t hide or show a tab, but with some creative use of Per User Data and/or Filters, you could have a list in your members tab that would show the private access area only when the user is authorized.  
I sort of do this, in [https://concepts.glideapp.io/](https://concepts.glideapp.io/) with the Admin demo, but keep in mind that I have the app as public, so it’s not entirely a good example. There’s also a write-up below that might help. It might not be exactly what you want, but it’s a workaround until Glide gives us more user access control.
