Overview

Only the first user who creates the subscription need go through registration. Additional users are created by this first user or by any user with the "tenant_admin" role.

Adding a new User

If you have the "tenant_admin" role, you can add a new user by selecting "Add a User" from the "Admin" menu.

Enter their name, and email and select their user type. The user type determine the initial set of roles that they are granted. You can later adjust their role. See the Roles page.

Once added, the user is sent an activation email that allows them to active their user.

Admin

This creates a user with the "tenant_admin" role and by virtue of that role the user will have all other roles.

Regular

This creates a user with the "explorer" and "scheduler" role. The "scheduler" role also includes the "publisher" role.

Read Only

This user has no roles. They can only view reports. If granted the right to drill-down and drill-through, then they may do so. Read-only users cannot create views or modify existing views.

ServiceNow

When using a ServiceNow data source, there's an option to automatically register and authorize ServiceNow users. When this option is selected, users are automatically added.
