Manage Users

The last section of the SWRemote admin console is the ability to manage the users who can log into your account. It may become necessary for more than one user to access your account. You can then provide users with the ability to log in and see devices in the system, or change some of the settings in the system.

Clicking on the "SRS Users" menu option on the menu bar will provide you both with a list of users in the menu, but also the standard search/edit form in the edit panel. Clicking one of these users, or searching for a user, will bring the user's information up in the edit panel.

In addition to the standard edit fields you're used to, the system also allows you to edit the following special fields:

• Password Information
• Must change Password
• Active

Changing a user's password will require them to enter that password the next time they log into the system. Note that you will have to enter the password twice to confirm you have not mistyped the password.

Checking the "Must Change Password" option will require, the next time a user logs in, that the user change his/her password.

As in the rest of our forms, Changing the "Active" flag will keep the user from being able to log into the system.

Roles

You'll notice on the top of the edit form for a user you have another button available. This is the roles button and it's purpose is to limit the access of a given user. For instance, you may want a user to be able to see/modify and look at logs of devices, but not able to modify the settings for your account.

This is performed in the same way that windows manages it's permissions. You simply choose a role you'd like to apply to a user and save it. It is this way that you're able to add abilities to a given user.
