Manage users

The User Management module is used to administer the users and the associated roles that grant them permissions within the Blue Prism platform.

The Security – Users tab displays the existing users organised into their groups in a tree control on the left hand side. Selecting a group in the tree shows the members of that group in a list on the right, whereas selecting a user in the tree shows the user details pane on the right.

The Users tab allows users to be organised or grouped into a hierarchical tree structure. The actions that can be taken are available via right-click context menus.
