Groups can be leveraged to greatly simplify security management in GlobalSearch.  Create one or more groups, secure them, and add users to the groups that match the user's security requirements.  Group permissions are additive.  If a user is a member of multiple groups on an Archive, that user's permissions will reflect the combined total permissions of all groups the user is a member of.  We do not recommend you attempt to blend user and group permissions on a single archive.  If a user is secured with Group permissions, the permissions should be all Group permissions, with not direct user permissions applied.

Info

When using 3rd party authentication providers, user accounts provisioned by the 3rd party source (via SCIM) can be added to Square 9 groups directly.  You CAN NOT add Windows accounts to Square 9 groups.  When using Windows accounts, group membership is controlled by the customer Active Directory.

  

  1. To create a Square 9 User, in the Users & Groups panel of the Square 9 User Administration section, click the Edit tab, then click the Users button.



  2. In the edit users panel, provide an email address, password, and password confirmation.  Note that username must conform to a valid email address.



  3. Click Add User.
