Set User Privileges

MaaS has a group privilege called Access and manage monitoring. Upon selection, the members of the respective group inherit this privilege.

Once the privilege is granted, contract users can create, access, manage, and use MaaS without additional permissions.

Prerequisite: Make sure you have one or more Groups in the User Manager. To create one, see Create a group.

To set user privileges to access and manage monitoring services, follow these steps:

1. In the DCD, go to Menu > Management > Users & Groups.

2. Select the Groups tab in the User Manager window.

3. Select the target group name from the Groups list.

4. Select Access and manage monitoring option in the Privileges tab.

Set Access and manage monitoring privilege

Result: The Access and manage monitoring privilege is granted to all the members in the selected group.

Revoke user privileges

You can revoke a user's privilege by removing the user from all the groups with this privilege enabled.

Warning: You can revoke a user's privilege by clearing Access and manage monitoring for every group the user belongs to. In this case, all the members in the respective groups would also be revoked from this privilege.

To revoke this privilege from a contract administrator, disable the administrator option on the user account. On performing this action, the contract administrator gets the role of a contract user and the privileges that were set up for the user before being an administrator will then be in effect.
