Creating a New User
To create a user in Motadata AIOps, a simple but systematic approach involving user creation, role creation, and assigning role to the user is followed. This process ensures efficient management of user access and permissions within the system.
1. Role Creation
First, create a role that defines a specific set of permissions and access levels. Roles serve as a convenient way to group users with similar responsibilities or access requirements. For example, if multiple users need the same permissions, such as log management capabilities, you can create a role specifically for log management with the necessary read and write permissions for the log module.
Navigation
Go to Menu. Select Settings 
. After that, Go to User Settings 
. Select Role to display the list of all the roles in the system.
Click on the Create Role button to start creating a user.
Role Creation Screen
Provide the Role Name and the Role Description for the role that you wish to create.
Select the check-box according the permission (Read, Read & Write, and Delete) that you wish to assign to the user for a specific module.
Suppose you want to assign Read permission for Log Explorer to the user, then select the check-box as shown in the picture below.
Assign all the required permissions and then select Create Role button to create the role with the configured permissions in Motadata AIOps.
2. User Creation
Next, we create a new user account in Motadata AIOps. Provide essential details such as username, password, full name, and email address. This step establishes the user profile within the system.
Navigation
Go to Menu. Select Settings . After that, Go to User Settings . Select User to display the list of all the users in the system.
Click on the Create User button to start creating a user.
User Creation Screen
Provide the details for user creation as follows:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| First Name | Enter the first name of the user. |
| Last Name | Enter the last name of the user. |
| Email Address | Enter the email address of the user. |
| Mobile Number | Enter the mobile number of the user. |
| User Name | Set a username for the user you want to create. |
| Password | Set a password for the user you want to create. |
| Confirm Password | Enter the same password to confirm that the passwords match. |
| Status | Use this switch to Disable/Enable the user access. |
| Groups | Select the group(s) that you want to assign to the user. The user will be able to access the data from the monitors that fall under the group(s) you select here. |
| Role | Select the role from the dropdown that you wish to assign to the user. |
Select Create User to create the user in the system.
Select Reset to erase all the current field values.
By assigning roles, you grant users the corresponding permissions and access levels defined within the role. This approach ensures consistency and simplifies user management. For instance, assigning the Log Management role we created in the first step to multiple users responsible for log management saves time and effort, as they inherit the same set of permissions.
By assigning groups to a user, you grant users the permission to access monitors that fall under the same group as the user. You can also create new groups by navigating to Group under User Settings
By following this user creation process, Motadata AIOps enables you to efficiently manage user access and permissions. It provides flexibility in granting appropriate privileges to different users based on their roles and responsibilities. This organized approach streamlines user administration and helps ensure that users have the necessary access to perform their tasks effectively.
