Managing Users
Most users are granted accounts in Non-Employee Risk Management using your SSO provider.
However, if you use the Collaboration service, you can grant some users accounts through portals you create. These are known as portal users.
You can manage both types of users within Non-Employee Risk Management, but they are managed separately.
Managing Lifecycle Users
On the Users page, you can review a list of the users in your environment, update existing users, or import new users.
Importing New Users
You can add new lifecycle users to your environment by importing a CSV file containing their information.
This CSV file must contain:
- The new user's name
- Their email address
- A username
Note
- The value used for username must be unique among all users in your environment. If an imported file contains duplicate usernames or usernames that already exist in your system, those imported users will fail.
- To grant imported users a role, include a groups string column in your CSV file that corresponds to an existing user role. In the imported file, select Roles in the dropdown over that column.
To upload a user file, from the Admin console:
-
Select System > Users in the left navigation.
-
Select
.
-
Select the CSV file containing your users. Select Open.
An Import Users dialogue box is displayed, including the columns from the CSV file.
-
Use the dropdown lists over the columns to select which columns contain the names, emails, and usernames for the imported users.
If your CSV file does not contain column headers, clear the Use first row of .csv file as column headers checkbox to ensure all users are imported correctly. Use the horizontal scroll bar to find all of the columns you uploaded with the CSV file.
Select Import.
The users you upload appear in the list of users. They can be edited and used in workflows as needed.
In order to sign in and manage non-employees in your system, imported users must be granted a role either using a groups string in the imported file or using an entitlement from your SSO provider.
Enabling and Disabling Users
To view, enable, and disable users, from the Admin Console:
-
Select System in the left navigation.

Select Users.
Three tabs are displayed at the top of the users table:

The user's details are displayed, including the user’s full name, status, and avatar.

If the user is enabled, the top of the page displays the disable user button. If the user is disabled, the top of the page displays the enable user button.
By default, the user's page displays 4 tabs.
