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 ObserveOps .

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.
