Managing User Permissions

Overview

The Users overview page is an individual tab . Here you can view the list of all users, add new users, manage permissions and delete accounts.

You can search for a specific user by name or filter out users by groups, roles or channels .

The table lists user names , the groups each user belongs to, and any individual roles assigned.

Any roles a group assigns to the user are not visible from this list.

If a user is part of the Administrator group, they have all roles and access to every channel.

There are individual columns indicating which channels the user is allowed to use and date and time the user was last active .

To modify an existing user account, click the pencil icon .

To delete a user, click on the corresponding 'x' icon . You can also select one or multiple users using checkboxes and delete them by clicking the 'Delete selected user' button

Creating a new user

To add a new user, click Add a User .

On the next page, set the username and password.

Below this part, you can add groups, roles and channels to the new user. Each new user needs to have at least one group or role and one channel available.

You can also set a default language for the user and enable Single Sign-On.

Depending on prior knowledge, inactive modules can be hidden. If advanced mode is disabled, the user will be unable to access pages which require a deeper understanding of FactFinder.
