Limiting User Access to your Metaverse
This guide shows you how to lockdown your metaverse and rooms by account-only access (accounts created by your admin from an email list)
Configure your metaverse to deny users without accounts
To lockdown your instance, you remove account creation for non-admins and lock your instance to account access only. Before or after you lockdown your instance to accounts, as the metaverse admin, you can create accounts for a list of emails or disable existing accounts.
- (Account management) Create accounts for approved emails:
Admin Panel > Accounts
Batch create accounts (with optional identities)
Single example: email1,identity1
Multiple example: email1,identity1;email2;email3,identity3 with spaces;email4
- (Account management) Remove access to existing accounts by "Disabling" accounts
Admin Panel > Accounts
Paste email address in "Find an account with an email address" text box
Select "FIND"
Change "State" dropdown to "disabled"
Click "Save"
- Remove account creation for non-admins
Admin Panel > Setup: App Settings
Select "Features" tab
Enable "Disable account creation"
- Lock your metaverse so only accounts can access
Admin Panel > Setup: App Settings
Select "Rooms" tab
Enable "Require accounts for room access"
Congrats! You've successfully locked down your instance!
Room Access Settings
Individual rooms can also limit access via Room Access Settings.
