Chapter 13: Authenticating Your Users > Membership Provider Settings
Membership Provider Settings
When you choose to enable authentication, LightSwitch uses the ASP.NET membership provider to manage your users. By default, the users that you create are added to a table called aspnet_Users in the intrinsic database. Figure 13-7 shows a screenshot of this table. The primary-key field is called UserId and is of data type GUID. The usernames that you specify are stored in a field called UserName.

Any roles that you create are saved in a table called aspnet_Roles. This table is shown in Figure 13-8.
