Admin Interface: User Management

On the Users page you can view, modify, create, or disable (not delete) user accounts. On each individual user's page, you can also add metadata, set permissions, and control license reservation time limits.

Note

  • Users cannot be deleted to preserve snapshot attribution. Disabling users is the equivalent.
  • The All Users group is updated automatically: active users are added and disabled users are removed.

Create a User

  1. Click Add user.
  2. Set a username and password, then Save (or Save and continue editing to set details now).
  3. Optionally fill contact info, staff/superuser flags, and a custom reservation_time_limit (max license duration in seconds for this user).

Disable a User

  1. Open the user record.
  2. Clear Active in the Permissions section.
  3. Save. The user will lose access and be removed from All Users.

Change a Password

  1. Open the user record.
  2. Click You can change the password using this form next to the Password field.
  3. Enter the new password twice and submit. A success banner will confirm the change.

Manage Group Membership

Use the dual list in the Permissions section to add/remove groups, then Save. (The All Users group membership is locked and follows the user's active state.)
