Managing Users and Groups
Managing users and groups involves adding users to your organization and optionally creating groups for related users.
You can renew invites for users whose invitation has expired. You can also activate or deactivate users and delete users when needed.
Adding Users
Add users to your organization so that you can collaboratively manage pipelines as a team.
User Status
When you view the list of users in the Users view, you can view the status for each user.
User Status | Description |
---|---|
Active | User is active and can sign in. |
Deactivated | User is deactivated and cannot sign in. |
Invited | User has been invited to join the organization, but has not accepted the invitation. |
Expired | User has been invited to join the organization, but the invite has expired. |
Renewing Invites
When a user's invitation to join the organization expires, you can renew the invite.
Creating Groups
Create groups for related users so that you can more efficiently manage users.
Adding Users to Groups
Create groups and add user accounts to groups to more efficiently manage user accounts.
To add a user to a group, you can modify the user account or the group.
- In the Navigation panel, click , or click .
- Click the row listing the user or group to display its details.
- Click in the area under User Groups or Group Users, then select the group to add to the user or the user to add to the group.
- Click Save.
Activating or Deactivating Users
Users must be active to sign in.
You might temporarily deactivate a user to disable access to Control Hub.
Deleting Users
When needed, you can delete users. Deleting users permanently removes the users from your organization, including the user's email address.
Control Hub uses the email address to identify the user who last modified an object. For example, when you view the list of pipelines on the Pipelines view, the Last Modified By column lists the email address of the user who last modified the pipeline.
When you delete a user, the deleted user's email address is replaced with a random ID. As a result, you might consider deactivating users instead of deleting them.
Before you can delete a user, you must deactivate the user.
