Managing Administrator Permissions

Updated on 2024-12-30 GMT+08:00

You can add administrators and administrator groups and grant them specific permissions for the administrator portal.

There are super administrators, common administrators, and system administrators.

  • Super administrators have permissions to manage all organizations, applications, and menus in the administrator portal.
  • Common administrators have permissions to manage only specific organizations, applications, and menus (except the menus on the homepage) in the administrator portal.
  • System administrators have permissions to manage all organizations, applications, and menus (except those in the administrator permission function) in the administrator portal. They are accounts generated by tenant sub-accounts logging in to the administrator portal.
    NOTE:

    System administrators are in the system management group by default, which is not displayed in the administrator portal.

Adding a Super Administrator

Use a tenant account to log in to the administrator portal, add an administrator to the super management group to grant it full permissions for the administrator portal.

  1. Log in to the administrator portal.
  2. On the top navigation bar, choose Security > Administrator Permissions.
  3. On the Administrators tab page, click Add Administrator.
  4. Enter the administrator information.
