New / Edit

This section explains how to add and edit groups.

To create a new group, click New. To edit an existing group, select the group and click Edit.

User groups have the following properties. All settings except for the Group Name setting can be inherited by individual users who have the selected group defined as their Primary User Group.

Setting
Description
ID
This system-generated number is used internally to identify the group.
Group Name
The name of the group.
Note: Discover recommends using only alphanumeric characters when specifying names used by the Portal application. Some non-alphanumeric characters may be blocked or may cause issues for some Discover components.
Default Time Zone (used in Search)
Hourly report values are displayed in the user's timezone, but the daily rollup of reporting data is controlled by the system timezone. It is best to set this value to the same as the system timezone to avoid confusion.
  • This time zone setting applies primarily to the affected users' search activities. Other Portal activities utilize the Discover system time zone. See "Configuring the System Timezone" in the Discover Configuration Manual.
Default System Locale
Select your preferred system locale. This setting applies the selected regional formatting to dates, time, and numeric values that are displayed to the user within the Discover Portal.
Default Date Format
Select the format, such as mm/dd/yyyy, from the list. By default, the date format is set to the date format of the configured system locale.
Default Language
The language the Portal should display for the user group.
Default Start Page
The list of available start pages depends on the user's group and menu permissions.
Default Password Expiration
This option requires all users to change their passwords every N days. After the password expires, the portal does not let the user continue after login until a new password has been set.
Password Expiration Warning Period
The number of days before password expiration for which the system warns users that their passwords are about to expire.
Default Portal Navigation Menu
Enable or disable the group's ability to see the top navigation menu in the Portal.
Default Log User Out If Idle
When enabled, members of the group are automatically logged out if their sessions are idle for a period longer than the session timeout length.
  • You can change the timeout length through Report configuration. See "Configuring the Report Server" in the HCL Discover Configuration Manual.
Default Allow Report Template Import
When enabled, this setting allows all users of the group to import report templates by default. This setting can be overridden by settings to individual user accounts.
  • By default, admin accounts are configured to allow report import.
  • All users can export report templates regardless of this setting.
Default Create Session Segment for Completed Session Search
Enable or disable the default length of time for which session segments remain available.
Default Create Combined Session Segment
Enable or disable the HCL Discover group's ability to use the Build Combined Segment feature in the Manage Session Segments page.
Default Lock Replay Mode
Enable or disable the group's ability to change Replay Mode.
Default Replay Mode
The following options are available:
  • Event Based - Replay event-based sessions inside the browser.
  • Advanced - Replay sessions inside the browser.
  • Prompt on Replay - Open a dialog for every replay.
Default Dashboard Detail Mode
When users drill-down into a dashboard, this option defines how the details are displayed.
Default Active Search Template
The default search template to load when the members of the group choose to search for active sessions.
Default Completed Search Template
The default search template to load when the members of the group choose to search for completed sessions.
Default All Sessions Search Template
The default search template to load when the members of the group choose to search for all sessions.
Search Box for Online Help
Enable or disable the Online Help search box available at the top of each Portal page for the group.
