Administering users

Administer users to give them access to Watson™ Care Manager. If Watson Care Manager's default single sign-on (SSO) capability is enabled for your organization, standard users can SSO to other Watson Care Manager applications, including the Reporting application. Alternatively, if your organization has a Federated Identity Management (FIM) arrangement with an identity provider external to IBM, you can request that Watson Care Manager integrate with your organization's own SSO solution.

About this task

For enhanced security, only security administrators can create standard user accounts. Then, administrators can assign care team roles and skills to each user account after it is created.

Important: If you want to request Watson Care Manager's default SSO capability for your organization, please submit a case on the Watson Health Support Portal. Alternatively, to learn more about how Watson Care Manager can integrate with your organization's own identity provider for SSO, see Integrating Watson Care Manager with your organization's identity provider.

Note: IBM administrators require access to the Watson Care Manager and Reporting applications to complete essential administrative tasks such as upgrades as needed. These administrators are shown on your users list with a Billing role. For more information, contact your IBM client executive.
