The Permissions section provides for users to be added and one of several roles to be assigned to a user for access control. A user’s assigned role (Integrator, Admin, Manager, or Reporter) determines what specific Cloud Node features and options may be accessed or denied (People, Groups, System Events, Auto Open, Elevators, Reports, Partitions, Door States, Live Events, and Configuration).
For permissions to be given to the end-users, first click on that customer’s account, then create the permission within that account.
Permission roles of Integrator, Admin, and Manager can add users in Permissions. The permissions table below illustrates the roles and allowed permissions of the Cloud Node features.
The Permissions section (on the same screen as Customers and Cloud Nodes) provides for users to be assigned one of several roles for access control.
