# Restricted Access

> Use when a val's HTTP endpoints should not be open to the whole internet — limiting an app to a team, understanding why an endpoint redirects to a login page, letting a webhook through, or identifying which Val Town user is viewing an app. Covers app access (httpPrivacy), org grants, bypass tokens for automation, and the X-Val-Town-User identity header. For building your own login flow inside a val, see the oauth skill instead.
