Hi @MO4

Create a Web Page Access Control Rules and add the Web roles to those rules to hide for Authenticated users but show for Anonymous Users.

Please link and Accept it as a Solution if it helps you.

Hi @MO4 ,

The solution proposed by @Anonymous should work. Another way to achieve this is if you create a web template for your page by yourself in liquid. Then you can easily have a condition like below to show content depending if user is logged in or not.
{% if user %} // CONTENT FOR LOGGED IN USER {% else %} // CONTENT FOR ANON USERS {% endif %}

Hi @MO4 ,

Usually, when you do it vice-verse ie restrict access to a web page by specific role with web page access control rules it will automatically remove the link from the header because of the access permissions. However, with the anonymous user, I would suggest modifying Header web template with liquid to see if a user is logged in and if the page is the one you need to hide and just skip it's rendering.

Web Page Control Access work only for authenticated type Web Roles as far as I know
there are a few options to achieve your need:

you can create two different Web Link Sets, one representing the authenticated, and other the anonymous, and define Web Links for each.. then go to your Header Web Template find the line that calls the Web Link Set (the web link set is usually called Default or Primary Navigation) and add the validation mentioned by @OOlashyn, so if you can set different Web Link Set according to the user sign-in state
only problem here is that you would end up with two web link sets to maintain.. every new link in the header you have to add twice
other option would be adding a custom attribute to your Web Link entity, something like Hide if user Signed In.. and make changes in your Header Web Template adding the validation when rendering the Web Link itself
this way you would avoid extra maintenance
I wrote a blog post a while ago about encouraging people to make changes to Portal entities and Web Templates, check it out: https://oliverrodrigues365.com/2020/05/30/power-apps-portals-navigation-menu-setting-up-a-tree-structure-menu/

Thanks this worked for my needs
& thanks @OliverRodrigues

for anyone trying to get this to work here's my example:
of course add your own Weblink Sets instead of ("User+Guest weblink sets") in the {% assign primary_nav=}:

</div> <div id="navbar" class="navbar-collapse collapse"> {% if user %} {% assign primary_nav = weblinks["User Weblink Set"] %} {% else %} {% assign primary_nav = weblinks["Guest Weblink Set"] %} {% endif %} {% if primary_nav %} ----------------
