Creating a User Profile

A User Profile lets you assign role, define scoping rules by Groups , and attach multiple users to reuse the same access configuration. This simplifies administration and keeps permissions consistent across users.

1. Role Creation

If the profile requires a role that doesn’t exist yet, create it first. Roles define what users can do (Read / Read & Write / Delete) across modules.

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 Profile Creation

Now, we need to create a profile that bundles users, role and scope in one place.

Go to Menu. Select Settings . After that, go to User Settings . Select User Profiles to display the list of all user profiles.

Click on the Create User Profile button to start creating a profile.

User Profile Creation Screen

Provide the details for profile creation as follows:

FieldDescription
User Profile NameEnter a unique name for the user profile.
DescriptionProvide a short description of the profile’s purpose.
UserSelect one or more users to attach to this profile.
RoleSelect one role that will be applied to all users in this profile. You can also create a new role using Create Role.
Scope byChoose how access is scoped. Options: Group (default) or Tag.
GroupsSelect one or more groups to define what monitors users in this profile can access. You can also create a new group.

Select Preview to open a side pop-up that lists all monitors matching the configured Group .

Select Create User Profile to create the user profile in the system.

Select Reset to erase all the current field values.

3. Manage Users in a Profile

After creating a profile, you can add or remove users as needed.

Click a profile name to view details, or use Assign User or Remove Assigned User from the Action menu to add/remove users. You can also edit or delete the user profile from the action menu options.

Removing a user from a profile reverts them to a standalone user with their previously configured roles and scoping rules.

Use Export As PDF or Export As CSV to export the profile list.
