Users and user groups

You create and manage users and user groups with features installed with thePlatform

Before you work with other users, verify that the Region setting preference for your own Collaborate user matches the default locale of your installation. The installation default locale is defined by the defaultLocale property under Settings > Configuration >Collaborate. For details on creating users and user groups, setting user preferences, and assigning application access, see the Platform Administrator's Guide.

After you create users, you assign them to a user group that has an appropriate level of access, such as CollaborateUserRole or CollaborateAdminRole. This process authorizes users to access Collaborate.

After you create users and user groups, you must synchronize the Collaborate user tables with the Platform user tables. This step assigns the default security policy roles to the users.See Synchronizing users.

Then, you assign access rights for the authorized users by assigning security policies within Collaborate.

If you do not see the users that you expect, or if users receive an error when they log in, make sure that the user group has application access rights to Collaborate. Next, make sure that you synchronized the user tables.
