More information

As stated in the documentation, this action function has protections that offer some safety but are not designed to prevent all types of abuse. Depending on the sensitivity of private data in a project's DataStore and the likelihood of abuse of a consuming site, a developer may choose to disable this action function or restrict its use with a IAuthFunctions plugin.
