Hi @royonk85,
If you are using Git Gateway with Netlify Identity you can add the code below to your config.yml file in the admin folder

config.yml file

backend:
  name: git-gateway
  accept_roles: #optional - accepts all users if left out
    - admin

The above code means that only users with a role called admin can only login to the CMS.

Once you are done you can assign roles to users in your Netlify dashboard, and then limit which roles can access the CMS by defining the accept_roles field in the config.yml example above.

You can ready about how to add users in your Netlify dashboard UI at https://www.netlify.com/blog/2019/02/21/the-role-of-roles-and-how-to-set-them-in-netlify-identity/

Hope this helps
