Users, Roles & Permissions
Users in ARM
Super Administrator
The Super Administrator (or Super Admin) is the person who has the highest permissions of all the admins. This role can create other admins, assign or remove permissions, and perform all other admin activities. Deciding who and how many users you assign as super admin users requires significant consideration because they have the highest level of access and can make changes that affect the entire network.
Super admin permissions are required for the following:
Creating other admins
Installing and configuring agents
Adding users to admin groups
Org Administrators
Org Administrators (or Admins) are users with permission to access the ARM administration dashboard. The Admin can assign multiple roles to an individual admin if their job requires them to perform actions spanning multiple roles. You can share the responsibility of managing your ARM account by assigning administrator roles to other users.
As an administrator for your organization, you can see a list of all the roles and privileges assigned to your users. This information can help you quickly determine a user's level of access to your organization's account.
General Users
General users have access to the ARM application based on the permission assigned by their Org Administrator. They are not allowed to access the Administration dashboard.
Important NoteSuper Admin and the user currently logged in are disabled for ALL actions. They cannot be added, deleted, suspended, activated, deactivated, edited, or their roles delegated to other users.

and Email
associated with a user, you can change the remaining fields.
Log in to your ARM account.
Go to the
Users
tab. Locate the user to whom you would like to make changes.Click on the

Navigate to
Admin > Users
tab. Locate and select the user you'd like to make changes to.Click on

You can temporarily block users' access to your organization's services by suspending their accounts. Select the user and click on

Enforce single sign-on (SSO)
You can enable an option to enforce SSO for members of your team. This will make it mandatory for all team members to log in via SSO.
To enforce SSO, you need to enable the SSO login configuration. Go to the My Account
page, and under the SSO Configuration
, select the Disable login with AutoRABIT credentials
checkbox. Click Save
. Your team members will now be forced to log in via SSO only. Even if SSO is enforced, you, as an org administrator, can log in using either standard authentication (username/password) or SSO.
How to override single sign-on (SSO)?
If you, an org admin, want to override the SSO configuration for an individual team member or group of users, you uncheck the Enforce SSO
boxes after selecting the team members from the list.
Note: When the Disable login with AutoRABIT credentials
option is selected, the Enforce SSO
checkboxes are automatically checked for all users.
Export Users
If you have Admin
permissions, you can export a CSV file of all the users currently in your account. The CSV export will contain the following user information:
Fields | Description |
---|---|
| First Name |
| Last Name |
| User status - active or deactivated |
| Email address |
| Login Username |
| Assigned role |
| Job title |
| Last login date and time |
| Date when the account was created |
| The user who created the account |
| Date when the account was last modified |
| The user who modified the account most recently |
| Login type: Standard or SSO |
| The IP address of the user at the time of the last login |
| Geographical coordinates of the user at the time of the last login |
| City, state, and country of the user at the time of the last login |
| The user's browser at the time of the last login |
| Date when the account was deactivated (if applicable) |
| The user who deactivated the user account |
Important Note: When a user logs in to ARM, the browser pop-up message will ask permission to access the location details. If you allow permission, the location details will be retrieved through your browser, but if you deny permission, the location details will be retrieved through your IP Address.
To export all user's details in CSV:

.
The fields you can export will be displayed on the next screen. Click the

Export Data Limitations
The parameters in the CSV for previously registered users (older than 60 days) will be slightly different:
CreatedDate = OrgCreatedDate
CreatedByName = registered user of the org
LastModifiedDate, LastModifiedByName, Deactivated Date, and Deactivate by fields will be null
As expected, the exported CSV file will contain the newest parameter data and changes for newly registered users.
