The Add/Edit User dialog box allows you to add a new user, edit an existing user or assign users to the group.
If you are adding a user, the dialog box will appear Add User. If you are editing a user, the dialog box will appear Edit User.
To open this dialog box, go to the Users tab. Click Add User or select a user and click on Edit User.
Please Note: If the user being edited is Admin, the only property that can be edited is the password.
User Name
Type the User Name in the box indicated. If you are editing a user, the selected user name will appear.
When editing the username, you must re-enter or change the password because passwords are tied to usernames in a hashed form when they are stored on the server and the admin tool does not have access to the user’s password.
This name is used as the login and can be any alphanumeric character, plus dash and underscore.
Authenticate using Active Directory
The Authenticate using Active Directory check box determines whether you want this user to use their Active Directory password or their Vault password when logging in.
This checkbox is only enabled if the Active Directory Domain box in the Server Options tab has a value.
Password
Type the Password or edit the selected user’s password. The password can contain any character or nothing (blank passwords are allowed). Verify the password in the box indicated.
Active
The Active checkbox indicates whether the user is active (currently using a license) and therefore allowed to login.
By clearing the Active checkbox, the user can no longer login to the Vault server and a license is freed up.
Please Note: You cannot delete a user. Users can only be Active or Not Active.
Default user rights
In the Default user rights box, check the rights that will apply to the selected user as the default for all repositories on the server.
Editing this does not override any specific rights assignments that have already been added for the user or for any assigned groups. It merely changes the default for future rights assignments and for folders where no assignment has been made or inherited.
Assign groups to user
Unassigned groups
The left box in the Assign groups to user box is an alphabetic list of all groups that are currently not assigned to the selected user.
Select the group to be assigned to the user. Multiple groups may be selected by holding the Control key and selecting the groups. Double clicking a group will move it to the Groups user assigned.
Groups user assigned to
The right box in the Assign groups to user box is an alphabetic list of all groups currently assigned to the selected user.
Select the group to be removed from the user. Multiple groups may be selected by holding the Control key and selecting the groups. Double clicking a group will move it to the Unassigned groups.
Use the arrows to move groups from one box to another. The double arrows move all groups.
Create
Click Create to add a new user or apply edits to an existing user.
Close
Click Close to return to the Users tab. No changes will be made.
