Manage user accounts and roles

Before you Start

🛈 This feature is considered stable for production use. For any feedback or issues, please use bug reports and feature requests.

🔐 Access to this feature is restricted to admin users.

This page explains how a server administrator can use the Accounts page to review user accounts and define user roles.

The Accounts page is used to:

  • list user accounts on the server

  • review account status and timestamps

  • assign or update the role associated with a user

1. Accounts page overview

The Accounts page displays a table of user accounts.

The table includes the following columns:

  • User

  • Roles

  • Expiration

  • License

  • Status*

Date values may be displayed using relative time labels such as:

  • 7 months ago

  • last month

  • last week

  • 6 days ago

2. Roles

Possible roles include:

  • Server Admin: manages the server instance and its administration features (for example, accounts and licenses).

  • Viewer: can view data on the server, without editing it.

  • Contributor: can read and write data on the server.

  • Administrator: can manage projects and data with elevated rights, but is not a server administrator.

These roles define what a user can do in the application.

A user can need both a role (defined on the Accounts page) and a license assignment (defined on the Licenses page). See Manage user licenses.

3. Update an account role

To update the role of an account:

  1. Open the Accounts page.

  2. Locate the target user in the accounts table.

  3. Select or edit the value in the Roles column for that user.

  4. The user will consume the tokens that are matching the selected roles

Review the Status, Expiration and License to confirm the expected account state after the update.
