Configure access settings

Set up which MT accounts and groups can sign in to the Web UI in standalone B2COPY

Applicable to standalone solutions only

In standalone B2COPY solutions, clients sign in to the Web UI using their MT account credentials (logins and passwords). To ensure granular access control, you can specify which MT accounts are allowed to sign in based on their logins and the MT groups to which they belong on the trading platform.

These access settings apply to all account types used for signing in, including payment accounts, master accounts, and investment accounts for copy trading, PAMM, and MAM.

Groups in MT4/5

MT groups are system attributes created by the broker on the trading platform. They determine trading conditions and control access to various platform features.

Groups are typically used to:

  • Separate accounts, such as demo and live.

  • Define different trading conditions, such as standard and pro, with different commissions, spreads, and margin requirements.

  • Differentiate account currencies, such as USD, BTC, and others.

To configure access permissions for MT accounts:

1

Expand the Settings menu.

2

Go to Access Settings in the menu.

Access Settings
Access Settings
3

If you have several platform instances (such as MT4 or MT5), make sure you are in the correct instance, or go to it using the switcher in the upper-left page corner.

4

In the Range of payment accounts section, enter the minimum and maximum account numbers (also called logins) in the From — To fields.

5

In the Allowed MT groups for payment accounts field, specify the account group name allowed to sign in to the Web UI.

You can use a mask when specifying the group name. Permitted symbols include:

  • Latin letters (A–Z, a–z)

  • Numbers (0–9)

  • Special characters: [ ] \ | ? + * ^ . { }

6

Click Save to apply the changes.

If you specify at least one of these criteria, client MT accounts are first checked to ensure they belong to the allowed range and/or group during sign-in, and then passwords are verified to complete the login process.

Example 1

This example illustrates how allowed MT groups can be configured:

  • B2COPY\demo\standalone-v2\usd — access only for this specific group.

  • B2COPY\demo\* — access for all demo accounts, regardless of currency.

  • B2COPY\live\pro\usd — access only for professional live accounts in USD.

Example 2

Suppose that the following access settings are configured in the Admin panel:

  • Range of payment accounts: From 100000 To 199999

  • Allowed MT groups for payment accounts: B2COPY\demo\standalone-v2\usd

Based on these settings, different login attempts will result as follows:

  • Login: 150000, Group: B2COPY\demo\standalone-v2\usd → Access granted

  • Login: 250000, Group: B2COPY\demo\standalone-v2\usd → Error: Login out of allowed range

  • Login: 150000, Group: B2COPY\demo\standalone-v2\btc → Error: Group not allowed to login
