What this does

Users are the people who sign in to Cloudby. User groups decide what each of them can see and do, so everyone has the right access and no more.

Open Users

Go to Menu > Settings > Users.

Users

Under Users, add each person with their name, email and contact details, set them active, and assign them to a user group.

User groups

Under Usergroups, define the roles. Each group has three tabs:

  • Usergroup. Its name and a Level, where a higher value means more authority.
  • Permissions. What the group may reach, module by module and feature by feature.
  • Users. Who is in the group.

Invite people

Use Invitations to invite someone to your organisation by email, rather than creating their login by hand.

Good to know. Group access by role, not by person. Set up a few user groups that match the jobs people do, then drop each person into the right one.
