Hi @Deepanshu Bajaj. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
To add a conditional button that links to the "dashboard" if the user is authenticated on a public page, you can use the
Authenticated
component from Refine. This component checks the authentication status and allows you to render different UI elements based on whether the user is logged in or not.
Here's an example of how you can achieve this:
In this example:
- The Authenticated
component is used to check if the user is logged in.
- If the user is authenticated, a button linking to the "dashboard" is displayed.
- If the user is not authenticated, a fallback message is shown instead.
This approach ensures that only authenticated users see the button to navigate to the dashboard.
For more details on the Authenticated
component, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/components/auth/authenticated/).

@kapa.ai what will be the "key" for authenticated ?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The
key
prop for the Authenticated
component is crucial for ensuring that the component is properly unmounted and remounted, especially when used multiple times at the same tree level. This helps avoid unexpected behaviors and ensures that the authentication logic works correctly.
Here is how you can add the key
prop to the Authenticated
component in your example:
In this example:
- The key
prop is set to "public-page-auth"
. You can choose any unique string value for the key
prop to differentiate this instance of the Authenticated
component from others.
For more details on why the key
prop is required and how it works, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/authentication/components/authenticated/#key-).
By setting the key
prop, you ensure that React will unmount and remount the Authenticated
component instead of just updating its props, which is essential for maintaining correct authentication behavior.
