Controlling complex user authorizations (not authentications), plan tiers and privs in FileMaker apps can really suck and easily get out of control. We invented HAM to solve the challenge of managing complex authorizations in the apps we build. It Makes build SaaS plan tiers a snap too.

This technical talk will cover HAM - Headless Authorization Module. A free open-source module and technique for managing complex user privileges and abilities. Attendees will learn about a super simple way to implement hierarchical privileges within their solutions. HAM was invented to handle the difficult task of various tiers, users and organizations in complex FMP solutions. You will also learn how to pass privileges set can be passed on to 3rd party applications easily. HAM is super simple, super powerful, and easy to integrate. You can use it as little or as much as you want in your solutions.
