Users

Section dedicated to being able to manage and control user permissions.

In this example we can see some of the existing users

📘

This section is accessible only by an Admin-role user

In this section we can view the first and last name, email assigned, Role type, last access on the Things5 platform, how many machines it has visibility on.

On existing user, we can still change all parameters except his email and group membership

Click in the upper right corner on + Add New to add a new user.

This screen will then appear to us:

Here you can edit any field, in detail:

• User
• First name

  You can only view how many machines it has visibility on
• Information
  Allows you to save changes

  You can flag notifications for the following events:
  • User created
  • Machine created

• Delete User
• Change Group Membership

📘

The submitted user will receive an email that will contain a link for creating a password to access the Things5 platform

Manage user

To edit a user:

1. in the Users section, find the user we are interested in
2. click on the "..."
3. Let's click on Edit

Here we can edit the same parameters found in Create User, except for the email field.
The Group field cannot be edited directly, but it can be deleted and reassigned.

📘

It is not possible to change the email associated with that account, but it is necessary to create a new account and reassociate it to the group/groups of the old account

❗️

Should the user lose the password, he can retrieve it independently on the login page
