The Add/Edit User pages allow you to add a new user, or edit an existing user. This page also lists the number of available full user and web-only user licenses.
If you are adding a user, click the Add User button. If you are editing a user, select the user name under the Login column.
If the user being edited is Admin, the only property that can be edited is the password.
Type the user’s Full Name, Email and Login in the fields indicated. If you are editing a user, this information will be automatically filled in.
When editing the Login, you must re-enter or change the password because passwords are tied to logins in a hashed form when they are stored on the server and the Admin Web Client does not have access to the user’s password.
The login can contain any alphanumeric character, dash or underscore.
The Status field indicates whether the user is active (currently using a license) and therefore allowed to login.
By selecting the "inactive" option in this drop-down menu, the user can no longer login to the Vault Standard server and a license is freed up.
You cannot delete a user. Users can only be Active or Inactive.
The Active Directory Domain for Authentication drop-down menu determines whether you want this user to use their Active Directory password or their Vault Standard password when logging in.
This checkbox is only enabled if the Active Directory Domain field in the Server Settings -> Advanced Settings has a value. There must be at least one Active Directory domain name entered here to enable the feature. It is possible to enter multiple domains into the Active Directory Domain field; each domain name must be separated by a semicolon. You may also specify which domain a user will authenticate against, or request that all domains are tried until one is successful, or all domains have failed to authenticate the user.
If editing an existing user, click the Change Password button. The password can contain any character or nothing (blank passwords are allowed). Confirm the password in the field indicated.
In the Default Rights in Source Control Repositories drop-down menu, select the rights that will apply to the user as the default for repositories on the server. Default user rights are only enforced if security rights are enabled for the repository. The options are:
None
Read
Read + Check Out/Check In
Read + Check Out/Check In + Add/Rename/Delete
Editing this does not override any specific rights assignments that have already been added for the user or for any assigned groups. It merely changes the default for future rights assignments and for folders where no assignment has been made or inherited.
This will control if the user is a Regular user or a Web-Only user. Web-Only users can only log in to Vault Standard through the web client. Web only users require a different license than regular users. Please see Server Settings -> Licenses.
