Password protection is in closed beta, which means that only selected customers can access it. If you're interested in implementing it in the future, please contact our Support team.

FastStore WebOps now includes password protection, allowing you to restrict access to your preview environments and the production domain using basic authentication. This feature enables merchants to protect internal testing environments, staging builds, and production domains from unauthorized access during development or initial launch phases.

Previously, preview deployments and production domains were publicly accessible once deployed. Now, you can enable password protection in the Settings tab to require username and password authentication before accessing these environments.

This feature enhances security by allowing you to:

• Protect preview environments during development and testing phases.
• Control access to production domains before official launch.
• Prevent unauthorized or accidental access to staging and QA environments.
• Ensure internal testing environments remain private.

To enable password protection:

1. Go to your FastStore WebOps dashboard and navigate to the Settings tab.
2. Locate the Password protection section.
3. Enable password protection for preview environments or your production domain by toggling the corresponding switch.
4. Enter a Password that users will need to authenticate with.
5. Save your settings.

When password protection is enabled, users will see a basic authentication dialog when accessing the protected environment's URL. They must enter the configured password to proceed.

For detailed instructions, see the Password protection section in the FastStore WebOps - Dashboard guide.

Remember to share the password with authorized users through a secure channel.
