In this section the application administrator can manage the user accounts. There are two types of user accounts:
local users - marked by blue bar in front of the row in the list
remote users (from AD/ADFS) - marked by green bar in front of the row in the list
For detailed information and differences see Types of users and their login process.
The screen for user management looks like this:
The administrator can create new local users by clicking the Add button above the list, see Add a user.
For existing users the administrator may invoke the following actions by clicking on the icons on the right side of the row:
Edit - Edit an existing user account. Displays a form and works similarly to Add a user. Only the password must be changed separately, see the action below. | |
Change password - change a user's password. The new password must fulfill the complexity rules set in Settings - Configuration - Security. For remote users, the password cannot be changed. | |
Send password reset token - a token will be sent to user’s email, which can be used to change his password. The token will expire according to the setting “Password reset link lifetime (sent by admin)” in Settings - Configuration - Security. Action is not available for remote users. | |
Delete - deletes existing user’s account. After confirmation, the account is deleted and cannot be restored. |
