Restricting access to web-accessible paths
We'll explore the three authentication mechanisms Odoo provides for routes in this recipe. We'll define routes with different authentication mechanisms, in order to show their differences.
Getting ready
As we extend the code from the previous recipe, we'll also depend on the library.book
