### Disabling Anonymous Users

Starting from version X.X.X of the module, you can disable anonymous users. Additionally, check whether `Anonymous` user role can be removed from the app. If your application does not require anonymous access, removing the role is recommended as a security best practice.

To disable anonymous users, set the `EnableAnonymousUserRole` constant to *false* in the module. By default this value is set to *true*. Once the constant value is set to *false*, end users can be authenticated via the `https://<your-app-url>/forgotpassword/v1/login` URL. When accessing the URL, users are automatically redirected for authentication.
