Authentication & Authorization
Enterprise-grade security without the complexity. JWT authentication, OAuth providers, magic links, and granular role-based permissions — all configured in minutes, not days.
Security Made Simple
Authentication is often the most complex part of building an application. Baasix provides a complete, battle-tested auth system out of the box.
From user registration to OAuth login, from password resets to role-based access control — Baasix handles the entire authentication lifecycle. You don't need to worry about token storage, session management, or implementing OAuth flows from scratch. Just configure your providers and protection rules, and Baasix does the rest.
- JWT-based authentication with automatic token refresh
- OAuth support for Google, GitHub, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, and more
- Magic link authentication for passwordless login
- Role-based access control with unlimited custom roles
- Row-level security for fine-grained data access
- Multi-tenant authentication with organization isolation
- Built-in user management: registration, email verification, password reset
Security Without the Headaches
Compare building auth yourself vs using Baasix.
✓ With Baasix
- Configure OAuth providers in settings, instant SSO
- Role-based permissions set via Admin UI
- Row-level security with dynamic conditions
- Token refresh and session management automatic
- Multi-tenant auth isolation built in
✗ Traditional Approach
- Implement each OAuth flow manually (weeks of work)
- Build custom RBAC system from scratch
- Write complex middleware for every endpoint
- Handle token expiry, refresh, and storage yourself
- Design and implement tenant isolation
Complete Auth Toolkit
JWT Authentication
Secure, stateless tokens with configurable expiration. Automatic refresh tokens keep users logged in without compromising security.
OAuth Providers
One-click setup for Google, GitHub, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, and more. Users sign in with their existing accounts.
Magic Links
Passwordless authentication via email. Perfect for reducing friction while maintaining security.
Role-Based Access
Create unlimited roles with specific permissions. Admin, Editor, Viewer — or any custom role your app needs.
Row-Level Security
Control access at the data level. Users only see records they're allowed to see, automatically enforced.
Multi-Tenant Auth
Built-in support for organizations. Users can belong to multiple tenants with different roles in each.
Authentication for Every Application
From simple login forms to complex enterprise SSO.
SaaS Applications
User registration, team invites, role management, and organization switching. Everything you need for a multi-user SaaS platform.
Consumer Apps
Social login for frictionless onboarding. Users sign up with Google or Apple in one tap, no passwords to remember.
Enterprise Portals
Complex permission hierarchies with row-level security. Managers see their team's data, admins see everything.
Internal Tools
Secure internal applications with SSO integration. Connect to your company's identity provider for seamless access.
Session Limiting & Device Management
Control concurrent sessions and track user devices with built-in session management.
Baasix provides comprehensive session management out of the box. Limit concurrent sessions per user, automatically revoke old sessions when limits are exceeded, and track devices for security visibility. Perfect for applications that need strict access control.
Device Tracking
Track which devices have active sessions. Users can see all logged-in devices and revoke access to specific ones.
Concurrent Session Limits
Set maximum active sessions per user. When limit is reached, the oldest session is automatically revoked.
Session Expiry
Configurable session lifetimes with automatic token refresh. Set different expiry for different session types.
Force Logout
Admins can force-logout users from all sessions. Perfect for security incidents or access revocation.
Security FAQ
How are passwords stored?
Passwords are hashed using bcrypt with configurable cost factor. We never store plain-text passwords, and hashes are salted individually.
Can I use my own authentication system?
Yes! You can disable Baasix auth and use custom endpoints for authentication. You can also extend the built-in auth with custom validation hooks.
Is two-factor authentication supported?
Yes, Baasix supports TOTP-based 2FA (compatible with Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.) and can be enabled per-user or enforced for specific roles.
How does row-level security work?
You define conditions like "users can only read their own records" or "managers can see records from their department". These rules are automatically applied to all queries.
