About Users

A user is an account that can log in and administer Embedded Cloud, such as viewing and managing accounts. Two types of Embedded Cloud users are available:
  • Administrators have full access to all Embedded Cloud functions, including adding, deleting, and managing users and accounts.
  • Viewers have read-only privileges across Embedded Cloud.
Every Embedded Cloud account must have at least one active administrator.

​
Users List

The Users list displays the following information:
  • A button to invite users.
  • A row for every user on your Embedded Cloud account:
    • User displays the email address that is associated with the user.
    • Role indicates the user’s role (Administrator or Viewer).
    • Status shows the state of the user’s account (Active, Inactive, or Invited).
    • Buttons to edit and delete the user. If the user’s status is Invited, there is also a button to resend their invitation.

User signup
Embedded Cloud supports Single Sign-On (SSO) through popular SSO providers. If SSO is enabled on your account, the invitation flow uses your SSO provider instead of the manual password process.

If a user has a pending invitation that they have not accepted, their status displays as Invited. Click the resend button to send another invitation email, or click the delete button to delete the user.

​

Click a user in the list to open the Edit User page.
