Users
user
A user is a person with a login and at least one assigned profile.
At creation of an environment, two users are declared by default. These two users have administration rights to manage repositories and users:
• the "Administrator" person, with Login "System" (without password)
The "Administrator" user cannot be deleted. It has no profile (it has all rights). It is recommended that you define a password to restrict use of the "Administrator" user code.• The "Mega" person, with Login "mega" (without password)
You must declare other users who will access repositories.
If several environments are defined for a site, users must be defined in each of these environments. To do this, export the user diagram from the reference environment, and import it into each of the other environments.
Do not manually create a user with the same name in other environments. If you do, the user will have a different absolute identifier in each environment, and you would actually have created different users with the same name.
MEGA recommends that you create the repositories before defining the users, so you can declare the user access rights when they are created.To access a repository, a user must identify himself/herself. Then, depending on user writing access area, he/she is able to modify the repository.
User groups (Web Front-End)
A person can belong to one or more groups. A user group is a group of persons with a login.
Persons belonging to a group:
• depend on the same environment.
• share the same connection characteristics defined by the profile of the group and its assignment.
• connect to the application with their login, but with access rights defined on the login of the group.
• share the assignments defined for the group.
• share the personal characteristics defined for the group.
By default at creation of an environment, a group of users is created:
• the "Guests" person group, with Login "Guest".
