Authenticating users from JSS apps
Version: 22.x
The Sitecore security model allows you to restrict content access by users and roles, personalize user profiles, and more. It is built on top of ASP.NET Membership and utilizes the .ASPXAUTH cookie by default.
The Sitecore Layout Service respects any logged-in users and Sitecore security. You can therefore leverage Sitecore security and authentication capabilities in JSS applications.
To learn how to authenticate users in JSS, start by creating a user and a protected page.
You can also enable Sitecore-integrated federated authentication (requires Sitecore development).
