Add users in CONNECT

As an administrator, you set up new users in CONNECT. When a new user is added and assigned to a role, an email is sent to the user with an invitation to access CONNECT.

Note: Adding a user to CONNECT automatically creates their account in CONNECT data services. However, to access CONNECT data services, the user must be assigned permissions within CONNECT data services, not in CONNECT data services. For more information on user permissions in CONNECT data services, see Assign the Data services Viewer role to a group in CONNECT.

To set up new users:

1. From the CONNECT home page, select User Management.

2. Select Users.

3. Select Add user.

4. In the Username field, enter the user's email address.

5. Skip the Groups and Add individual role controls for now. You will add users to groups and apply roles to them in future steps.

6. Select Save.

   The user is created and an email invitation to CONNECT is sent to the user's email address.
