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 your test settings

Navigate to the test on your AutoProctor dashboard and click the Settings button.
2

Go to Advanced Settings

Scroll down to the Advanced Settings section and locate the Login Restrictions fields.
3

Add domain or email restrictions

Enter the email domains or specific email addresses you want to allow. You can combine both types of restrictions in a single field (see examples below).
4

Save the test

Click Create or Update to apply the restrictions.

​
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.

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.
