Users

Users are people (or service principals where supported) that can sign in and receive roles in your organization and tenants. The identity UI shows org-wide user lists and tenant-scoped user lists, depending on where you are.

Organization users​

Identity Management → Users (org level) shows members of the organization with search and table controls. Use this to understand who belongs to the org at a high level. Exact columns (email, name, role, last active, and so on) follow your deployment’s data model.

Tenant users​

Tenant settings → Users (see Tenants) lists users relevant to the selected tenant, again with search and standard table features.

Roles​

Invitations and policy often refer to these role names (labels may be localized in the product):

Role (internal name)Typical use
ownerBroad control over the org/tenant, including high–risk settings.
adminUser and settings management, including invitations and some SSO and collector update policy where applicable.
memberDay-to-day work in apps with read/write on assigned resources.
viewerRead–only access to permitted resources.

The available roles list when inviting users is loaded from the product API; if the network call fails, the UI may fall back to a default list so invitations still work. Always align operational procedures with the roles your environment actually returns.

Permissions model (reference)​

The platform’s permission strings (used in API tokens and server checks) include organization:read / organization:write, tenant:read / tenant:write, user:read / user:write, and resource–specific scopes for pipelines, collectors, metrics, and more. The Identity Management UI does not expose every string; it uses role membership and a small set of permission checks to show or hide New tenant, Invite user, Configure SSO, and similar controls.

Invite user​

Invite user is available on org-level Users and Invitations tabs, and in tenant Users / Invitations, when your account has organization write (org flows) or the appropriate tenant rights (tenant flows). The modal is described in Invitations.
