About Profile Pages

Profile pages are specialized pages that appear in a dedicated user menu in the top-right corner of your live app, separate from the main page navigation. They're designed for account management and administrative tasks that don't belong in your app's core workflow.

How Profile Pages Work

Profile pages only become available after you've activated users in your app. Once activated, authenticated users see a user menu in the top-right corner of the live app. This menu automatically includes all profile pages the user has permission to access.

The key difference between profile pages and regular pages is where they live. Regular pages appear in your app's main navigation and drive your core business workflows. Profile pages appear in the user menu and handle supporting tasks like account settings, admin tools, and reporting.

Profile pages are not login pages

Since users must already be authenticated to see the user menu, login pages don't apply to profile pages.

Common Use Cases

Account settings let users update their own name, email, password, notification preferences, and other personal information. This reduces support requests by giving users self-service access to their account data.

Administrative control panels give admins centralized access to user management, system configuration, and monitoring tools. Placing these in profile pages keeps powerful admin features out of the main interface.

Data export and reporting pages provide access to bulk exports, custom reports, or analytics. Profile pages are a natural home for utility functions users need periodically but not as part of their daily workflow.

File management pages give users a central place to manage uploaded documents, media files, and other digital assets.
