# Navigation

When the flowchart reaches the navigation node, the application will open the specified navigation point and continue from there. 

There are no exits and there is only one property: the Name. The name is the specified Navigation Point and cannot be changed in the flowchart. To learn more about Navigation Points, read the specific article on [Navigation](https://docs.wem.io/platform/wemmodeler/navigation).

Important to keep in mind for the security of your applications is that navigation nodes bypass a navigation items visible when property. A decision node with the same expression as the navigation point can be used to reinstate the pages access protection.

Best practice: \
Use the **visible when** property only for controlling who can see menu items, and manage access control at the start of your flowchart. Using a calculated field in a decision node, as shown in the image below, is the most effective way to protect certain flowcharts from unauthorized access.

When a user has the correct authorizations, they will continue through the normal flow via the "yes" exit, while unauthorized users will be sent to the unauthorized flow.
