Set up CONNECT users and groups

CONNECT data services users and groups are managed through CONNECT. You must first add users and groups in CONNECT before those users can access CONNECT data services. This section guides you through creation of users and groups in CONNECT. Later, in Set up CONNECT data services groups, roles, and permissions, you will add these users and groups to CONNECT data services.

Step 2A: Add users

Add the users that will use CONNECT data services to CONNECT. For instructions on completing this process, see Add users in CONNECT.

Step 2B: Add groups

AVEVA recommends managing users as groups, so you should create one or more groups to organize your users. For instructions, see Add groups in CONNECT.

Step 2C: Add users to a group

Place your users in the appropriate groups. For instructions, see Add users to a group in CONNECT.

Step 2D: Assign groups the CONNECT data services viewer role

Before you or any other user can log into CONNECT data services from CONNECT, you must first assign your user group the Data services Viewer role in CONNECT. This role allows users to see the service tile within CONNECT that allows you to log into CONNECT data services. For instructions, see Assign the Data services Viewer role to a group in CONNECT.
