  Login Activity

What's this Feature All About?

With this feature, you will have the option to enable tracking of Login/Logout activity for your end users so that whenever a user logs in and logs out of the application, it will also make an entry in a collection so that we can track who logged in and logged out at what time and from which IP address.

Benefits:

• Track the last login time of users.
• Track application usage patterns and build reports.

• Track inactive vs most active users.

 Create Collection via API

What's this Feature All About?

Using the Create a Collection function of the REST API, users may easily construct a collection with all of its related fields. With this feature, users can import their existing Collection or Table from the REST API.

Benefits:

• Instead of creating Collection and its associated fields from scratch manually, now user can import their collection schema directly from REST API.

• It increases the platform's efficiency and saves the user a great deal of time.

   

   

   

 Logged-In User data and Custom Components 

What's this Feature All About?

This feature allows you to access the Current Logged-In User, Current Tenant’s data and Session values in the custom component.

Benefits:

• You can use Logged-In User data in building custom components such as Tables, Charts, Graphs, etc
