Creating New Users

Before you begin

In the cloud, only the tenant admin user can create new users. In a multi-environment tenant, environment administrators can also create new users for their specific environment.

On a physical or virtual Integration Appliance, only admin users can create new users.

Procedure

  1. In the Management Console, login as administrator.
  2. Select Setup > Users and Groups.
  3. In the New User window, enter a value for the following fields: Name, Display Name, Email, Password, and Confirm Password.

    It is recommended that you add the tenant name to the user name and display name.

    For example, if the tenant name is castiron.com, then the new user name should be newuser@castiron.com. This will help you identify common user names across multiple tenants in the cloud.

    If you clear the Hide Password Text option, your password displays and is no longer encrypted.

  4. From the Libraries Environment list, select the environment from which the user’s projects can retrieve additional libraries and files for endpoints. The environment you select should match the environment of the primary group the user is a member of. For example: If you select the Development environment as the Libraries Environment, you should be a member of groups in the Development environment.
  5. In the Groups list, select all the groups to which the new user will have access.
  6. Optional: Clear the Active checkbox. If you clear this option, the user cannot log in to the Management Console.
  7. Click Save.

Results

In the Users section of the Users and Groups page, the new user is displayed in alphabetical order.
