User administration
If the user accounts for your Spotfire implementation are manually added to the database (rather than synchronized with an external directory such as LDAP), user administration takes place in Spotfire Server.
Note: User accounts that are automatically created by
Spotfire Server, such as automationservices@SPOTFIRESYSTEM, cannot be deleted and their names cannot be changed.
For more information about users, see Users & groups introduction.
- Creating new Spotfire users
If your Spotfire implementation is configured for Spotfire database authentication, you can add new users in Spotfire Server. (To import and export users, use the Administrator Manager in Spotfire Analyst.) - Adding a user to one or more groups
A user can belong to one or many groups. A user who is an explicit member of a group is also, by inheritance, a member of that group's parent groups. - Removing a user from one or more groups
You can remove a user from a group to remove the user's access to the licenses that are enabled for that group. - Changing a user's name, password, or email
You can change user properties in Spotfire Server. - Disabling a user account
Disabling a user account makes it impossible for the user to log in to Spotfire, but keeps their record in the system for reference or for enabling them again in the future. - Deleting users from the system
To permanently remove users from your Spotfire implementation, delete them. However, if you want to deny them access to Spotfire but keep their records in the system, you can disable their accounts instead.
