Manage Users

Learning Statement: In this article you’ll learn how to manage user accounts.
Audience: This article is aimed at OMBEA Insights Administrators.

Introduction

You can add multiple user accounts to OMBEA so that colleagues across your entire organization can benefit from all that OMBEA Insights has to offer.

Before a user can do anything with data or Touchpoints, you must grant them access. You can grant access to a single Location, Website, or an entire Folder. There are two levels of access, called Roles, you can grant to a user:

  1. Admin: Can view data, manage Touchpoints, and create other users within the Location, Website or Folder
  2. Standard: Can only view data for the Location, Website or Folder.

By assigning users to different Locations, Websites or Folders, you can control who sees what, which allows you to create a hierarchy of viewing and admin rights.

A user can have different roles for different Locations, Websites or Folders. For example, you could grant a user Admin access to their own Location, and Standard access to the wider Folder. This way they can manage their Location and Touchpoints while viewing others.

When it comes to Users, you can:

  1. Create a new user
  2. Edit an existing user’s details such as their name and email address
  3. Edit an existing user’s access to Locations, Websites and Folders.
  4. Subscribe a user to different Reports and Notifications.
