Add Users
You can add several types of users from the Users page in Paragon Automation.
An administrator or a user with the privilege to add users can add the following types of users to Paragon Automation:
-
Local users, where the user is authenticated and authorized by Paragon Automation.
-
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) users, where the user is authenticated by the LDAP server, but is authorized by Paragon Automation.
-
Third-party users, where the user is authenticated by OpenID Connect or Google Account, and is authorized by Paragon Automation.
Before you add a user, you must configure a URL to access the Paragon Automation GUI from the Portal Settings page because this URL is sent in the activation e-mail. For more information, see Configure Portal Settings.
