Managing subscriptions, instances, and users
Use the IBM® SaaS console to access, create, and delete instances, invite users to the subscription, and manage your subscription.
About this task
- Enterprise (paid) subscription
- The subscription owner of an Enterprise subscription can invite other users to the subscription
or to specific instances as users or administrators. When they are invited to the subscription,
users and administrators have equal rights. When they are invited to an instance, administrators
have extra rights, such as the ability to invite new users.
When you provision an instance of App Connect Enterprise as a Service, you receive an email that contains a link to access the IBM SaaS console. Use the console to access, create, and delete instances, invite users to the subscription, and manage your subscription. You can also access the console by clicking your initials on the App Connect Enterprise as a Service header.
To invite users to an instance, access the user management feature by clicking your initials on the App Connect Enterprise as a Service header for that instance.
- Trial subscription
- The subscription owner of a trial subscription can invite other users to the instance, but not
to the subscription.
When you provision an instance of App Connect Enterprise as a Service, you receive an email that contains a link to access the IBM SaaS console. Use the console to view information about your subscription. The subscription owner can also upgrade the subscription to a paid plan from the console. You can also access the console by clicking your initials on the App Connect Enterprise as a Service header.
To invite users to an instance, access the user management feature by clicking your initials on the App Connect Enterprise as a Service header for that instance.
