Manage Connector Access for Users
You can create users and then assign a role to them to grant access as per the role you define. Depending on the permissions you assign to the role, you could categorize the users with all or read-only privileges. You can define the scope for users and configure the access to a specific connector or group of connectors.
We support multiple user roles.
- Manager User: The most privileged users are Managers, who have full privileges and access to all resources in the subscription. Only Manager users can create users and assign roles.
- Users: A Manager user can create two types of users. Depending on the permissions you assign to the role, you could categorize the users with all privileges or read-only privileges.
All privilege : The user will have all the privileges in TotalCloud except creating and managing other users.
Reader privileges: A user with the Reader role can only view the data displayed in TotalCloud module.
