Creating Users

New user accounts are created from the Users page in the Mgt Console. This page explains how to add a new user to Mapworks.

📄 Note

User Manager or Organisation Administrator role is required to create users

To create a user:

1. In Mapworks UI, click Mgt Console in the bottom left

2. Click Users

3. Click the orange Add User button on the right

4. Complete the Create New User form
   • Email — Enter the user's email address in the text box provided
   • Role — Select the user's role from the drop-down list. (See Roles for information.)
   • Mapworks username/password enabled — Selecting this checkbox enables the new user to login to Mapworks directly with an email + password. Leaving unchecked creates the user, but allows login ONLY through the organisation's configured external identity provider(s).
   • Send welcome email — Sends email containing temporary password to the new user, requiring them to log in and change their password. Without this, the user will need to perform a forgotten password flow to set a password.

3. Click the Create button at the bottom of the popup
