Adding a user

When you add a new user, the role you choose determines the permissions that user has.

Users can have the following roles:

• Admin. An admin user has full access to all resources within the project or site to which they've been added. They can add other users, create assets, pair sensors to assets, and so on. They can also monitor assets and acknowledge and resolve abnormalities. If they are added at the project level, these permissions extend through the entire project. If they are added at the site level, these permissions are limited to only that site.

• Technician. A technician user has read-only permissions to the project or site to which they've been added and permissions for monitoring assets and acknowledging and resolving abnormalities. If they are added at the project level, these permissions extend through the entire project. If they are added at the site level, these permissions are for only that site.

• Read only. A user with read-only permissions has permission to read (but not add, change, or delete) details of all resources within the project or site to which they've been added.

You use the same procedure to add a new user to a project or to a site.
