Assign and Remove Users in Symphony Tenant Accounts

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

You can assign or remove users in Symphony accounts as a Symphony supervisor. You can also change the current account for a user.

The default supervisor user is no longer installed; add users to the Supervisors group instead.

Assign a User to an Account

To assign a user to Symphony tenant accounts:

  1. Log in as a supervisor user. The Manage Users work area appears, listing all the users definitions in the Symphony instance. If you navigate away from this work area, you can always access it by selecting Tools > Users from the main menu.

  2. On the left side of the page, select the name of the user definition whose accounts you want to modify. The user definition appears on the right side of the page.

  3. Select the Account(s) tab. This tab lists all the accounts to which the user is assigned and the number of groups to which the user is assigned in each account.

    Select the accounts to which a user belongs, and define a current account for the user

  4. Select Add Accounts. The Select Account(s) dialog appears.

  5. Select (check) the accounts you want to which you want the user definition assigned. If you clear (uncheck) the checkbox associated with an account here, the user will be removed from the account.

  6. Select Apply when finished. The list of accounts on the Account(s) tab adjusts to show your selections.

  7. Optionally, in the Current Account field, select the account that should be used the next time the user logs in. See Set the Current Account for a User.

  8. Select Save to save the user definition.
