User Access Management

As an administrator, you can manage users by authorizing, rejecting, disabling, and editing access to Test Manager.

If you are an Orchestrator admin and you log in for the first time in Test Manager, you inherit the administrator.

To create a Test Manager user, you need to add a local user in Orchestrator. The user will log in to Test Manager, and be requested to change the password.

Manage User Access

To manage user access, open Test Manager, click the vertical ellipsis at the upper-right corner of the page and select Users and Groups.

The following table lists the actions that you can take to manage your users.

Action	Description	Procedure
Authorize/Reject	Authorize access to users that have requested it through the login page. Authorizing a user request sets their status as Active. Correspondingly, rejecting a user request sets their status as Disabled. To keep yourself up-to-date with user access requests and authorizations, you need to configure Email Notifications.	In the Users and Groups page, go to Pending Authorization. Select a user and click the vertical ellipsis button to open the dropdown menu. Select Authorize or Disable.
Disable	Disable user access to Test Manager. The user status is set to Disabled and its entry is moved to the Disabled tab.	In the Users and Groups page, go to one of the user tabs (All, Users, Administrators). Select a user and click the vertical ellipsis button to open the dropdown menu. Click Disable.
Update	Update user roles to Admin or User.	In the Users and Groups page, go to one of the user tabs (All, Users, Administrators). Click a username. Click the Admin Role toggle to switch it on or off. Click Save.
