This guide will explain how to add a user to your Sighthound Platform workspace.
You must have 'Workspace Admin' privileges to add users to your workspace. If you do not and believe you should, please contact Sighthound support. |
Navigate to the Users page of the Sighthound Platform by selecting 'Users' from the left side-panel.
At the top right side of the Users page, you will find a create User button. Enter the user's name, email, and desired role. Each role will allow the user different permissions. Click 'Create User' to complete this process.
The 'Role' chosen will define what kind of permissions the user is granted. Below is a table showing the resources each permissions role can access. Note that roles are cumulative, so permissions will stack when assigned multiple roles. For example, someone using Sighthound's data API to integrate metadata from Sighthound devices into another platform will be assigned the Integrator Role and Workspace Admin/User roles.
