This article provides the instructions to add additional users to your Appspace instance via email invitation in the Users extension. This workflow covers the basics of creating and sending an invitation to the user to begin creating their account.

Important
To assign Network Administrator or Content Administrator roles, please go to Devices > Networks tab instead, as the permissions for these roles are added directly to a network. Please refer to the Create a Network section.

Prerequisites

  • You must be one of the following users:
    • Portal Administrator
    • Account Owner
    • Network Administrator
Important
Appspace servers must have active connectivity to the SMTP server to be able to add new users, or send e-mail notifications.
Create User Invitations

A user must be invited into Appspace by a system administrator. To send user invitations, follow the instructions below:

  1. Click Users from the Appspace Menu navigation bar, and select a network from the Networks section.
  2. Click the ADD button.
  3. In the Invite users window, enter in the email addresses of the new user(s), and assign the user group(s).
    You may choose to assign the user group(s) later.
  4. Click Send once done.
    The system will send an invitation email to the user(s).
  5. In Users, click the user group to view the user invites that were sent. The status of the invited users will indicate Pending.

  1. Click Users from the Appspace Menu navigation bar, and select a network from the Networks section.
  2. Click the desired user’s name link.

  4. Select the required user roles from the Roles drop-down menu.
  5. Add user groups in the Group Membership field. You can then view the inherited group roles below.
  6. Additionally you may choose to suspend or delete the user. Click the Suspend user or Delete user links respectively, and follow the confirmation prompts to proceed.

    Note
    • You can add one user to multiple user groups.
    • If you selected user groups during user invitation, those groups will be listed here as well.
