Login restrictions let you control exactly who can take your test by filtering candidates based on their email address. This prevents unauthorized access even if someone shares or discovers your test link.

How to Set Up Email Restrictions

1

Open the Access & login Section

Go to your Tests page, click Settings next to the test, and choose Access & login from the list of sections.

Add Domain or Email Restrictions

In Login restrictions, enter the email domains or specific email addresses you want to allow, separated by commas. You can combine both types in the same field (see the examples below).

Separate entries with commas, not spaces. An entry that contains a space is rejected when you save.

Domain-Based Restrictions

You can restrict access to candidates whose email addresses end with specific domains. For example, entering @abc.com and @xyz.com allows only candidates with those email domains to take the test.

Specific Email Restrictions

You can also permit individual email addresses alongside domain restrictions. This is useful when most candidates share a domain but a few external participants need access. For example, you can allow all users whose email ends with @abc.com plus specific individual email addresses like guest@gmail.com.

A domain and one specific email address in Login restrictions

Email restrictions work in conjunction with the candidate’s login method. The candidate must sign in with an email address that matches one of the allowed domains or addresses you specified.
