Abstract

These steps show how to add a User when username/password authentication is in use.

Note

When CloudConnexa is used for authentication (the default), users must be provisioned. Refer to Set CloudConnexa (Username/Password) authentication for Users. When LDAP or SAML is used as an authentication method, users are added automatically after authentication.

To add a User to CloudConnexa, follow the steps below:

  2. Navigate to Users > Users.

  3. Click Add User.

  4. For Username, provide a unique username. Note that an email address can be used as a username.

  5. For Groups, select a User Group from the displayed drop-down list.

  6. For Roles, select a role from the displayed drop-down list. Member is the default Role.

    Note

    If Admin is selected as the user's Role, Email becomes mandatory to provide because Admins receive various email notifications. Refer to About Users and User Roles to learn about Roles. Refer to About Notification Settings to learn about the various notifications.

  7. For First Name, optionally provide the first name of the person.

  8. For Last Name, optionally provide the last name of the person.

  9. For Email, optionally provide the person's email if Member is the chosen Role.

    Note

    Please provide an email address if you want the person to receive an invitation email from CloudConnexa containing the temporary password and steps to get connected.
