Authenticated Website User Licenses

Authenticated Website User Licenses

Platform portal users have the Authenticated Website license, which is designed to be used with Salesforce Sites. It gives named sites users unlimited logins to your Platform Portal to access customer support information.

Required Editions

Available in: Salesforce Classic
Available in: Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions

The Overage Authenticated Website license is the same as the Authenticated Website license, except that users do not have unlimited logins.

Note
Note When orders are enabled, standard profiles automatically include all object permissions for orders, as well as read access for products and price books. If your external users are assigned to a standard profile and these object permissions aren't appropriate for them, consider creating custom profiles that don't include these object permissions.

This table lists the permissions that can be given to Authenticated Website users.
