How do I add a user?
This use case starts when you want to add a user and ends when you have added one.
In this example, you add a user, user1, include the user to the API consumer group and assign the Consumer privilege.
Before you begin
Ensure you have the API Administrator privilege.
To add a user1. Click the menu options icon
from the title bar and click
Manage users.
2. Click Create user.
3. Provide user1 in the Username field.
This is the user name that the user must provide during sign in.
4. Provide user_first_name in the First name field.
5. Provide user_last_name in the Last name field.
6. Provide user@email.com in the Email field.
7. Provide the Password that must be used to sign in.
8. Select the API Consumer group.
9. Select the API Consumer privilege.
10. Click Save.
The new user appears in the Manage users screen.
Alternative steps:
1. In Step 8, you can add more than one group.
You can also modify the list of groups later.
2. In addition to the privilege that you assign to users, the users will have the privileges of the selected groups assigned to them. If you select more than one group, then the highest privilege among the groups added will be applied to the user. For example, if you select API provider and API consumer groups for a user, then the user will have the API provider privilege.
