User Accounts
A User is defined as a single login account that accesses ProVision.
New Users can be created from the "Manage Users" Tab under the Admin area by clicking the green "Add User" button.
Creating/Editing Accounts
When creating or editing User accounts, you will be presented with the following options. Note that membership in multiple permission groups is allowed.
Setting/Resetting User Passwords
When you click on the padlock icon, you will be presented with options to set a new password and/or send a password reset email to the intended user account.
User Groups
ProVision administrators can also create permission groups to assign users to. This allows more control over user roles. The two default groups are:
- Global Admin
- Global Read-Only
New Groups can be created by ProVision administrators by pressing the green "Add Group" button.
Overlapping group and user permissions
Permissions are inherited based on the hierarchy of the objects, unless you specify a different permission!
Add a Group
After hitting the "Add Group" button, the Group Information screen will pop up.
Add in the name of the new group, and set the permissions for that group by defining the resource(s) in the dropdown menu, checking the functional areas that you want accessible. Click "Show Details" to fine tune the functional areas into Create/Read/Update/Delete level permissions.
In the example below, New Group has top-level (Global) permissions to Create, Read, and Update IPAM and Resource functions, but not to delete or access other areas. For more detail on top-level and resource permissions, see Global Permissions and Resource Permissions.
Click "Save" when complete. After adding the group, you can add users to the group by selecting it when editing a user account.
