Hi, I’m confused on given access. Im;m building a mini membership site. I understand users but whats confusing me is if I create a paying member in my crm which then passes information into a google sheet , how do I give this member access to the mini site? do I add them into the same table as users, or do I create a new table for profiles? I checked the profiles template and in there profiles and users are different.

I basically want to grant user access to the app to paying members so they can check them self into an event they want to attend

how best to do this? thank you

Make your app a Private app. You can choose either the user profile table or another table as your whitelist table to grant access to certain users.
