Users

The Users Management is the essential first step in defining and organizing access permissions, as all subsequent groups, roles and permissions rely on the accurate setup of user accounts.

Regardless of the chosen ID Provider, configuring users in the User Management section establishes the essential foundation for RBAC (Role-Based Access Control), enabling robust, secure, and scalable access control across the system.

How Users integrate with RBAC

By establishing users first, the organization can easily assign them to groups and later link these groups to roles as needed, creating a scalable, manageable RBAC hierarchy.

Typical Workflow

• User Registration: Users are created or imported from an external source (LDAPS or Azure). This provides a central repository for user accounts.
• Assign Users to Groups: Once added, users are assigned to Groups. Groups are logical collections of users with similar access requirements, such as departments, teams, or project members.
• Link Groups to Roles: Groups are then connected to Roles. Roles define the specific permissions for each group, streamlining the process by allowing permissions to be assigned collectively rather than individually.
