The Users tab in the Archie Auth panel is where you manage registered users in the current environment. Block accounts under investigation, force a logout after a security incident, resend verification when an email got lost, or just see who’s signed up. Every action available in the UI has a matching GraphQL admin mutation for programmatic use.Documentation Index

The users table
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| The user’s registered address. | |
| Name | First + last name. |
| Status | One of Active, Unverified, Locked, or Disabled (see below). |
| Last Login | Timestamp of the most recent successful login. |
| Actions | Per-row admin controls. |
User statuses
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Active | Verified, not blocked. Can log in. |
| Unverified | Signed up but hasn’t confirmed email. Login blocked until verified. |
| Locked | Hit the failed-login threshold. Auto-unlocks after the configured lock duration. |
| Disabled | Manually blocked by an admin. Stays disabled until unblocked. |
Admin actions
Block / unblock
| Action | Effect |
|---|---|
| Block | Sets disabled = true on the credential record. Active sessions aren’t terminated; new logins are refused. |
| Unblock | Clears disabled, restoring login access. |
Resend verification
If a user didn’t receive (or lost) the verification code, resend it. A new 6-digit code is generated with a fresh 1-hour expiry. The previous code is invalidated.Force logout
Invalidates the user’s refresh token. Their access token stays valid until natural expiry (15 minutes by default), but they can’t refresh — so they’ll be forced back to the login screen on the next refresh attempt. For an instant kick-out, combine Force Logout with Block. The token blacklist on every request will reject the access token even before it expires.Force logout all
Revokes every user’s refresh token in the current environment. Use after a security incident — a leaked signing key, a database breach, anything that requires forcing every user to re-authenticate. The blast radius is intentionally environment-scoped: forcing logout inmaster doesn’t touch staging.
Per-environment scope
User management is scoped to the current environment. A user registered instaging is a different record from a user with the same email registered in master. Switching the environment selector changes the entire users table.
This separation is the point — it means dev and staging traffic doesn’t pollute production user records, and a developer logging in to staging doesn’t burn rate-limit budget in master.
GraphQL admin API
Every dashboard action has a corresponding GraphQL mutation. Useful for scripted user-management — bulk-revoke after an incident, sync user state from another system, or build your own admin UI.| Mutation / Query | Purpose |
|---|---|
adminListCredentials | List every registered user with status, email, and last-login. |
adminToggleUserStatus | Block or unblock a user. |
adminResendVerification | Send a fresh verification code to a user. |
adminForceLogout | Force-logout a specific user. |
adminForceLogoutAll | Force-logout every user in the current environment. |
Permissions
Admin operations require admin-level authentication — typically a user with theadmin role or an API key attached to that role. Define the role in Role-Based Access and grant it the system permissions needed for the admin mutations.
FAQ
What's the difference between Block and Force Logout?
What's the difference between Block and Force Logout?
Block prevents future logins. Force Logout terminates the current session by invalidating the refresh token. Combine them for an instant kick-out: Block stops new logins; Force Logout cuts the live session.
A user is locked but the lock duration is too long — how do I unlock them?
A user is locked but the lock duration is too long — how do I unlock them?
Block then Unblock the user. That clears the lockout state. Alternatively, run a successful password reset — the recovery flow clears the lockout on success.
Does Force Logout All affect API keys?
Does Force Logout All affect API keys?
No — API keys are managed separately under Backend → Settings → API Keys and aren’t touched by user-session operations. Rotate compromised API keys there.
Can I delete a user instead of disabling them?
Can I delete a user instead of disabling them?
Use the Data Model’s
users table or _auth_credentials to delete the row. Hard deletion removes the credential entirely; disabling preserves history. Most teams disable rather than delete to keep an audit trail.How do I bulk-export the user list?
How do I bulk-export the user list?
Use
adminListCredentials over the GraphQL API, or query the _auth_credentials table directly via the Data Viewer or SQL Playground.
