User Roles#

In the Management System, there are two user roles: user and admin. Only users that are assigned an admin role can access all functionality. Therefore, the available features depend on your role. As a rule of thumb, regular users only have read access to the system while admins can modify it.

In the Management System, regular users can only access the Node Tree and Deploy menus. They can also customize their own user profile.

Adding a New User#

Users in the admin role have to create new users before these can set a password and log in to the Management System.

  1. Select Users in the menu on the left side.
  2. Click the Add new user symbol in the upper-right corner.

    !Add New User

  3. Enter the required information: First name, Last name and Email.

    Note

    Filling in the remaining fields and setting a profile picture are optional.

  4. Select Save to create the user.

The user needs to be activated after it has been created. This can be done by clicking an activation link that is sent to the e-mail address that was specified during the creation of the user. The activation e-mail is sent automatically by the Management System shortly after the user is created.

Activating a User#

To active a user, the user needs to click an activation link that is sent to the e-mail address that was specified during the creation of the user. By following the link, the user needs to set their password in order to be activated and to be able to log in to the Management System.

  1. Follow the activation link that was sent to the specified e-mail address.
  2. Enter the password you would like to use for Management System access under New Password and Confirm Password.

    !Setting a Password

    Note

    The password must contain at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter and one number. It must be at least 7 characters.

  3. Select SAVE NEW PASSWORD.

The new user is now activated and can log in immediately with their e-mail address and the password they have defined.

Note

When an admin creates a new user, the Management System states ACTIVATE in the ACTIVATED column. Clicking this opens up a new window, in which the Management System asks for a PIN Code. This is a relic and has no function. It will be removed in a future update so please ignore this for now.

!PIN Code

Resetting the Password#

In case a user does not remember their password, a request to reset the password can be sent from the login page of the Management System.

  1. Access your Management System.
  2. Select Forgot Password.

    !Forgot Password

  3. Enter the e-mail address of the account that needs to reset the password.

    !E-mail Address

  4. Select Reset. An e-mail with instructions is sent to the e-mail address of the account.

  5. Follow the link from the e-mail to reset the password.
  6. Enter the password you would like to use for Management System access under New Password and Confirm Password.

    !Reset Password

  7. Select Reset to save the new password.

The password has been changed and the user can log in immediately with their e-mail address and the new password.

Deleting a User#

Users that are assigned the role of admin can delete any user that is registered in the Management System.

  2. Choose the user you would like to delete.

Note

The ellipsis menu also offers an Assign option. This is a leftover of a feature that is now fully automatic and serves no function anymore. This will be removed in the near future so please ignore this for now.
