Overview
Email whitelisting lets you control who can view a published project by approving individual email addresses. When a visitor opens the page, they must verify ownership of an approved email before they can access the content.
It's set up per project in the Publish modal, the same way as password protection. This makes it a good fit when you want to share a single project with a defined group — like a client or a review team — without configuring a full identity provider.
How it works
When a visitor opens the page, they must verify ownership of an approved email through a secure link and a verification code before they can access the content.
You add approved email addresses to the project's whitelist in the Publish modal.
A visitor opens the published page and is asked to enter their email address
If the email is on the whitelist, Vev sends a verification email with a secure link.
The visitor opens the link and enters the verification code to confirm it's them.
Once verified, the visitor is granted access to the project.
How to enable email whitelisting
Step 1: Open the Publish modal in your Project
Open the Vev project you want to protect.
Open the Publish dialog.
Step 2: Add approved emails
Find the email whitelist option (alongside other protection options like password protection).
Add each email address you want to approve.
Publish your project to apply the changes.
Step 3: Verify the visitor experience (optional)
Open the published page link.
Enter an approved email address.
Open the verification email, follow the link, and enter the verification code to confirm access.
Good to know
Email whitelisting applies per project, not to the entire hosting.
A green indicator in the security settings shows when whitelisting (and other protections) are active.
Email whitelisting protects all projects published under the hosting it's enabled on.
Available only for Organization plans.
