Login Redirect on Role

[ray]

Hello. I am trying to configure a login redirect based on user role per: https://howto.caspio.com/tech-tips-and-articles/common-customizations/create-user-specific-redirect-after-login/

My Admin user role is indicated by a YesNo checkbox in the User table that the authentication is based on.

Here is my javascript from the source code of the footer of a standalone Caspio HTML login page: 

<script>
if("[@authfield:Admin]" == "Yes"){
window.location = "https://[myurl]/a_dashboard.html";
}
else {
window.location = "https://[myurl]/s_dashboard.html";
}
</script>

The Authentication I am using has the redirect "Advanced Option" set to "Same Page" for a successful login. If I enter a redirect here I can only enter one URL. When I try to log in with a User having the Admin role (YesNo checkbox checked), I do not get a redirect to the a_dashboard.html. The login.html web page just refreshes but no longer displays the embedded Caspio login form. Everything works if I remove my javascript redirect code and just let the Advanced Options of the authentication specify a particular page to go to, but this doesn't let me redirect by role...

Answering my own question; when referring to the authfield in the javascript I was using the name of the field in the Users table. I should use the name of the field in the view that is based on the Users table.

Hi ray,

 

In addition, you may use the "picker" so that you are sure that you'll be getting the correct field from the available DataSources.

 

 

Hope this information helps.
