I am developing a training compliance app that will have a small number of administrators or trainers. These trainers will need to solicit a signature from many other employees digitally within the app. Does that single signature require each employee to be an end user?
Hi @thehovie, welcome to the forum!
Not necessarily. You could create a public app, and create dynamic data through url parameters (e.g. assigning employee id and a secret key to avoid impersonating from malicious users) in order to get the signatures.
As this would be a public app not requiring users to authenticate (log in with user and password) but only take an action (sign), then retool wouldn't charge for each user (employee) that uses the app.
Thanks @MiguelOrtiz! Yes, if you are using Cloud hosted Retool, you can opt to create a public app. As Miguel mentions, public apps have no authentication and you can't use resources that require user authentication. It is available to anyone with the link.
If you cannot have your app publicly accessible, then yes, your users would have to have a paid seat in your Retool org.
