System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps manage access control for Netlify sites, distinguishing between Netlify Identity and Secure Access, and routing requests to the appropriate layer for authentication.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Access Control: Manage who can reach a Netlify site and differentiate between Netlify Identity and Secure Access.
  • Authentication Routing: Directs requests to app-level Identity, site-visitor Password Protection, the Auth0 extension, or Team/Org SAML SSO.
  • Two-Layer Pattern: Explains the two-layer (perimeter + in-app identity) pattern and its double-login tradeoff.
  • Use Case: When a user wants to lock a site, restrict access to employees only, set up password protection, SSO, or SAML, or is confused about Netlify Identity vs Secure Access vs team login vs OAuth providers.

Quick Start

Use the netlify-access-control skill to configure access control for your Netlify site.
