Assigning users to a role

To assign users to a role, you need to have the appropriate permissions to work with that role. For example, Security Power Users can assign users to Guest User or Power User roles only.

When users are assigned to a role, the users receive an email indicating that an account was created for them and they need to create a password to access the Secure Endpoint Console.

If SCIM integration is enabled, users are managed in your IdP. Any role changes you make will be overwritten by the next sync from your IdP. The exception is the System Administrator role. If you assign this role to a user, it is not overwritten.

To assign users to a role after the user is created:

  1. Log in to the Secure Endpoint Console as a user with Assign permissions for Users and View permissions for Roles.
  2. On the navigation bar, click Settings > User management > Roles.
  3. On the Roles sidebar, click the role you want to assign users to.
  4. Click Assigned Users to see a list of all users assigned to this role. The date and time when each user last logged in to the Secure Endpoint Console shows in the Last Login column.
  5. Click Edit.
  6. On the Assign Users page, notice that all users that are already assigned to the role are grayed out. Click the checkbox next to each user with an Active status that you want to assign to the role.
  7. Click Save.
  8. On the confirmation dialog, click Close.

The user is added to the list on the Assigned Users page for this role, and a User updated event is logged to Event History.
