Auto-join For Mobile App

💬 Mobile

Can someone from Retool please explain how Auto-join for a Retool Mobile app is supposed to work? I have it checked for my organization (cloud based) but I can see no changes to the login screen for my app. I have my Auto-Join set to automatically send an invite but all I see on the login screen for the PWA and the mobile app is the normal Retool login screen that requires a user name and password. There is no option to just supply my email address and receive an invitation. What does this option do? What am I misunderstanding?

Hey @neilbalthaser

To use the Auto-join feature for your Retool Mobile app, follow these steps to ensure it is set up correctly:

  1. Navigate to Settings:

    • Go to your Retool organization settings.

  2. Configure Auto-join Domains:

    • Under Settings > Advanced, locate the Auto-join domain section and ensure that you have added the appropriate domains. This allows users with email addresses from those domains to join your organization automatically.

  3. Set Auto-join Behavior:

    • After adding the domains, specify whether users with matching email addresses can either request to join or join automatically.

  4. Check User Invitations:

    • If you have configured it to automatically send invites, ensure that your settings enable this function. When users attempt to log in, they should be able to see options that align with your configurations.

  5. Distribute the App Link:

    • Provide the app link to users. Users signing in with an email from a defined Auto-join domain should see an option to enter their email and receive an invitation instead of using a username and password.

  6. Test the Login Flow:

    • Have a user from an approved domain attempt to access the mobile app or the PWA "Progressive Web App". They should see the option to enter their email for an invitation if set up correctly.

If you are still seeing the traditional login screen without the option for email submissions, double-check your configuration settings. It may also be helpful to reach out to Retool support directly for assistance.

Important Note: Always ensure any links or settings are checked under the organization management tools and that all configurations are saved.
