Field to store Password value

  1. Is there any way to store the password in some other format like: *************

This is a normal use case when using some sensitive information.

  1. Also, can we force AppSheet to not save my data in the backend, and run only the automation.

This actually doesn’t make sense since AppSheet is not meant to work that way.

The only thing that comes to mind is:

Sensitive “Personally Identifiable Information” (PII) Data Policy | AppSheet Help Center

Yes, Thanks for the link. I have read the article.

PII is also storing the data in the backend. Also, there is no way I can hide my password field.

Maybe this can be a feature request. This use case comes naturally when we are storing any password field.

The thing is, why would you want to store any password on your backend?

Don’t store passwords in Appsheet data tables. You shouldn’t be storing passwords ever unless you are very knowledgeable about internet security and cryptography, and know the appropriate ways to set up password storage.

If you’re trying to set up your own login system on a Public plan app, don’t do that either.
