The hamburger menu on the right of every tenant allows performing the following operations:

Also, using the “Add” button on the right top corner of the widget, you will be able to create new users. Please notice that if you choose to use external authentication for users (e.g. LDAP), creation or deletion of local users, as well as assignments of local users with groups are not allowed to prevent conflicts between the two systems which might cause security problems.

Adding Users

  1. Click Add button in the widget.
  2. Specify a name for the user.
    The name must contain at least five alphanumeric characters and begin with a letter. It can also include the following characters: -, _ or ..

  4. Check Admin checkbox to assign the user administrator privileges. In order to have access to specific tenants in the system, the user will also need to be explicitly assigned with those tenants, and have a tenant-specific role for each of them. For more information about the roles and the differences between them, see Roles-Management section.
  5. Select tenant(s) from Tenants list and assign a tenant-specific role(s) for the user.
  6. Click Add.

Assigning Users to Tenants

Users must be assigned to tenants with a specific role for each tenant. The roles are sets of permissions defining what actions the users can perform in the context of the tenant. Users can have different roles in different tenants, and as long as at least one of those roles allows them to perform an action in the tenant, they will be able to perform it. The available tenant-roles are: viewer, user, operations and manager. For more information regarding each role and the differences between them, see Roles Management section.
