Can I implement user access control with SurveyJS?

Yes. SurveyJS supports integration with any user management system, but the actual access control logic needs to be implemented on your side.

SurveyJS is a suite of front-end libraries. It lets you build, display, and submit surveys, but it doesn't include built-in user authentication or permission features because it doesn't come with a backend. However, SurveyJS components can be integrated into systems that already have user roles and permissions (e.g. admins, editors, reviewers).

This means you can use your own backend (or a third-party provider like Auth0 or AWS Cognito) to:

  • Authenticate users and verify their identity
  • Authorize them to perform certain actions (e.g. only allow editors to publish forms, or reviewers to approve submissions)
  • Track who can edit, publish, view, or submit surveys

SurveyJS UI components simply respect the role-based access controls that you define on your backend.
