Permission Denied (401)

Show your users a 401 page when they try to access an unauthorized page.

Overview

A 401 page is an error message shown by a web server when a user tries to access a resource without proper authentication. It indicates that the request lacks valid credentials, such as a username or password, and prompts the user to log in or provide authorization.

In Softr we call this page Permission Denied, but you can change this to whatever you like - the functionality will stay the same. The page cannot be deleted or removed except by disabling Login functionality in your app’s User Authentication settings.

To access the Permission Denied page/block:

  1. Ensure Login is enabled in the User Authentication settings.

  2. Click on the Pages menu

  3. Select the Permission Denied page from the Utility pages section

  4. Click anywhere on the block itself to open additional settings.

Query these docs via MCP

Recommended

Add this server to Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, Mistral, or any tool that supports MCP. Your agent can then search Softr Documentation documentation and read it in full, instead of answering from memory.

  • searchFind the passages that answer a question.
  • fetchRead one page in full, as Markdown.
  • list_pagesSee every page in this documentation.

Query these docs over HTTP

The same tools also work as plain web requests. Use this for scripts, or for any tool that does not support MCP. There is one endpoint per tool. Arguments go in the query string, and the answer comes back as JSON.

https://docs.softr.io/api/docs/search?query=custom+domain

Read the OpenAPI description. It is built from the same definitions as the tools, so it always matches what the endpoints do.

Read these docs as Markdown

Add .md to any page URL to get its Markdown source. You can also send the headerAccept: text/markdown to the page URL itself.

To read the whole documentation in one file, open llms-full.txt. For a short index of every page, open llms.txt.
