Users (Configuration)

This section allows to:

create and remove users and groups;
change user permissions, access to objects;
set Event log filters.

The accounts and passwords are encrypted on the server with the bcrypt password-hashing function.

Any symbols, except for the @, are possible to use in users' logins and passwords, groups' names.

The section consists of a list of users and groups. Search within the list is implemented by the filter button . Clicking the button adds a new user or group.

User groups allow to simplify user management and their:

permissions,
object access,
permissions to view events from the xref:web-interface:event-log.adoc.

Create a group, assign permissions to it and add users to the group. It is possible to edit the group later.

Permissions of a user and their groups are sum up. In order to allow a user to perform various actions in the system, it is necessary that corresponding rights have been assigned to either the user or at least one of their groups.

Users are marked in the list with the icon . The icon marks user groups.

LDAP and Keycloak accounts are marked with special icons – for users and for groups.

On the right there is a set of tabs to view and change the properties of the selected user or group.
