Users & groups

Use this section to manage users and groups that are given access to the Management Console and projects.

The security model is role-based; after you add a user, assign the user to one or more groups associated with roles on one or more projects.

This option contains two tabs:

• Users: Create, edit, reset, and remove users.
• Groups: Create, remove, and edit groups.

See the following topics to manage users and groups:

User management principles

Management Console runs embedded in a RoboServer with any license and on a standalone Tomcat server (requires enterprise license). For information about Management Console on Tomcat, see "Tomcat Management Console" in the Tungsten RPA Administrator's Guide.

When Management Console runs in embedded mode, user management is turned on by default, providing security to prevent unauthorized access to a Management Console from other computers.

Depending on your license and the way you run Management Console, manage user access as follows:

• Internal user management: Available in both Embedded and Standalone mode.

• External user management (LDAP, SAML, or CA Single Sign-On): Available only in Standalone mode with enterprise license.

When you run the enterprise version on a Tomcat server, Management Console is always in the multi-user mode. You can choose to manage users either in Management Console (such as embedded mode) or get user credentials from your corporate LDAP server. The authentication method is displayed in the "User origin" column.
