Universal App "Read-only" for external users

Hello Seatable Team,

since the new Update of the Universal App is no longer usable for useres without a Seatable account as before. We use it alot for customers and other external users, so that they can enter their information directly into the App. Now I recognized, that the only thing, a user without a Seatable accound can do is, to fill in a form. All other functions and fields like text fields are “read-only”. Do I have to change any new settings, to enable the former functionalities?

For modification to existing records, the user should register an account. It can be a free account in another team and then join the external app. It is for recording the modifier of a record.

This is a designed behaviour since beginning (one years ago). I don’t know why in the previous version, in your case, the anonymous external users can modify a record. I don’t think this should happen.

Could you provide more details about how you were able to modify records without authentication? This would help us investigate whether there was a system issue or perhaps a misunderstanding about the process.

SeaTable 5.1 has not changed the permissions of anonymous users in open access apps. Anonymous user have only read-only access to an app - in SeaTable 5.1 just liek in prior versions.
