I want to build a new app that our vendors can view their metrics with out having to use paid seats for them to log into. We need to basically compile data into tables and they can see the compiled data when they log in. So I guess I would need some sort of guest role?

Quickbase allows EOTI access "Everyone On The Internet".  I will post some links to help articlers.

I suggest that you send each EOTI Vendor a link to a record and on that record include embedded report links of any reports they need.  tell then to bookmark that link.

There is also a technique to disguise the Record ID# so that users cant as easily guess into other clients records. 

here is an example of an emailable button which can be used in an email  notification to the Vendors

var text DisplayRecordWithObsureRID = URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid()
& "?a=dr&r=" & QB32Encode([Record ID#]);

var text ButtonWords = "Click here to display your vendor Information";

var text URL = $DisplayRecordWithObsureRID;

// Begin button style
var text bgcolor = "#34A853"; // green
var text txtcolor = "white";
var text style = "style=\"text-decoration: none; text-align: center; background:" & $bgcolor & "; border-radius: 5px; padding: 8px 10px; color: " & $txtcolor & "; display: inline-block; font-size: 150%; font: normal 700 24px/1 \"Calibri\", sans-serif; text-shadow: none;";
// End button style

"<a " & $style & " href=" & $URL & ">" & $ButtonWords & "</a>"
