How to manage users
Create a User
Users can create a new user through the dedicated form within the user page. Access the user registry through the “Settings” button from the left menu. Then, select the “Users” button from the top bar.
The page displays the list of users currently registered on Blindata, along with their username and display name. It is also possible to edit or delete a user if you have the appropriate permissions. By expanding the resource through the right arrow next to the name, some actions will be shown:
- Detail: This button allows you to go to the detail page of the selected user, showing all the properties of the user.
- Modify: This opens the form to edit the selected user.
- Delete: This button allows you to delete the user. Instead of deleting the user, it’s possible to deactivate it using the “Active” flag in the edit form.
To create a new user, use the blue circular button located at the bottom right. The icon opens the form for creating the new user, with the following fields:
-
Username: User identifier during login. Required and unique.
-
Full Name: Name to display in Blindata.
-
Email: The user’s email address. Required and unique.
-
Password: Alphanumeric password.
-
Repeat Password: Confirmation input of the entered password.
-
Active: The account is active and functioning regularly.
-
Not Active: The account is not active, and it is not possible to interact with it unless it is reactivated.
Edit a User
Users can use the same form fro createion to adjust user properties inside other user’s detail pages. Click “Modify” button to edit a customer.
It’s not possible to edit username, in that case user need to be deleted and recreated.
Delete or Disable a User
In Blindata, a user can be either active or inactive. When active, the user is operational within the limits of their permissions in the active tenant. In this way, if for any reason we want to temporarily remove a user, we can simply deactivate it.
On the other hand, an inactive user cannot operate in Blindata unless their account is reactivated.When a user is not active, the “not active” badge is displayed next to their name in the user list.
To enable or disable a user account, use the modification form as explained in the previous section.
It is also possible to permanently delete a user account using the delete button provided on theuser list. In this case, the account cannot be recovered, and a new one will need to be created.
Research a User
It is possible to search for a user both within and outside the current tenant typing the username on the search bar located at the top of the user list page.
To search for a user outside the current tenant, you need to use the filtering modal within the user list. To interact with the “Only current tenant” checkbox
It’s also possible to search for users using filters based on:
- User permissions on the tenant
- Last login date
- Last password reset date
