I got it to work.
Enable profiles
Add a dummy profile to Profile sheet
Set visibility of whatever you want to hide/show to āemail as signed in userā (if you donāt have profile set up you canāt use āas signed in user)
The so expected sign in button is there, great job Glide, thanks!
Now, please : re-activate Privacy Shieldā¦

Is there a way to tie this particular sign in action to a sign in method?
Sign-in with password, email whitelist, etc? while keeping the overall app public?
Everytime the user closes the app and comes back in, do they have to sign in again if they already have signed in previously using the button?

If itās public they will have to sign in, however in my experience they havenāt always been asked or have been sent a pin it just signs in the user.

Already figured another method out 
Thanks!
In my experience, for public apps, users have to sign back in whenever the app is closed. This is frustrating as the new sign in action makes developing public apps with āsigned in sectionsā so much simpler and intuitive. Is there ever going to be a way to save the login session for public apps? Maybe a āremember meā setting at login?

Indeed. Any progress or work around for this?
I wish! Not that Iāve found yet.
I am having the same issue so I turn it back to what it was public with email which is a shameā¦
oh yesā¦ this is a problem ā¦ we need a cookie to save the login and not have to do it again at each access

Thank you!!!
yes yes pls, when starting Glide just automatically run through the ānewā signin function. if the user was signed in before go ahead and load profile by email, if not show public page.
when user logs off forget him so next time that user needs to run through the login again, email with code.

Great feature, which allowed me to develop a complete sign-in process. Thereās one odd thing though, if you havenāt gotten the user to log into his account yet, he can go and click into sign-in in the top-left menu. When he does Glide asks him for his name, which is weird since thereās not yet a record to save it toā¦
@david I have a customer that wants this precise scenario i.e. public access for general info but with the ability to register (via the new SignIn button action) to access members-only areas. Testing this today it seems to work fine but still with the problem that a registered member has to re-enter their email and get another PIN each time the app is closed. Is there an imminent fix for this or an alternative configuration to achieve a similar āpublic / membersā visibility split? I am reluctant to move ahead with them unless I know I can handle it successfully.
It will be fixed in tomorrowās release.
