serverpod-auth

You can add authentication to a Flutter app using Serverpod by integrating the SignInWidget into your UI to handle the user sign-in flow and using client authentication state listeners to react to changes. This establishes the authenticated session required for backend access.

You restrict access to Serverpod backend endpoints by setting requireLogin and requiredScopes in your endpoint definitions. This enforces scope-based access control, ensuring only authenticated users with specific permissions like admin can execute protected methods.

You check if a user is authenticated and retrieve their profile in Flutter by using the client's isAuthenticated property and fetching user profile details such as email and full name. This allows your Flutter UI to react to the authentication state and display user-specific data.

Yes, you can link custom domain data to an authenticated user in Serverpod by attaching custom tables or models to the AuthUser. This allows you to store and manage additional per-user information beyond the standard authentication profile fields.

No, you do not need to build custom session management to handle Serverpod authentication. The framework provides built-in auth session fields and client state listeners, allowing you to verify authenticated sessions and enforce permissions without building auth plumbing from scratch.
