Managing Users

Most users are granted accounts within Non-Employee Risk Management through your SSO provider or through an imported CSV file. These are known as lifecycle users.

If you use the Collaboration service, you can also grant non-employees accounts they can access through portals you create. These are known as portal users.

You can manage both types of users within your Non-Employee tenant.

Managing Lifecycle Users

On the Users page, you can review a list of lifecycle users in your environment, update existing users, or import new users.

Importing New Users

Users are granted accounts within Non-Employee automatically when they authenticate using your identity provider. However, you can also add new lifecycle users to your environment by importing a CSV file containing their information. This allows you to use them in workflows before they sign in to your environment.

This CSV file must contain:

• The new user's name.
• Their email address.
• A username.
• If you want to grant the users any roles, include a column in your CSV file that contains a group string corresponding to an existing user role.

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.
• Users must have a role in order to sign in to Non-Employee. If you don't include a groups string in your CSV file, the user's role can be granted when they authenticate into Non-Employee with your identity provider.

To upload a user file, from the Admin console:

1. Select System > Users in the left navigation.

2. Select .

3. Select the CSV file containing your users. Select Open.

   An Import Users dialog box is displayed, including the columns from the CSV file.

4. 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.
