User Management

A guide to configure and manage users to match your processes and compliance requirements.

User management is essential for proper cloud management. Xelon HQ allows you to set granular permissions on your users, and to allow or deny access to certain organizations or functions.

A user is always created within an organization. Users added to your root organization may have access to sub-organizations, depending on your configuration. Users added to a sub-organization will not have access to the root organization.

User roles in Xelon HQ

HQ Root Admin

Can access the organization you're adding the user to and all other sub-organizations. Use this role for users that need access to every organization.

Organization Admin

Can access the organization you're adding the user to and specific sub-organizations. Good choice when you require a user to see only selected sub-organizations.

No access to any HQ

User will not access any organization or sub-organization and their data.

Pro Tip

If you want a user to access only a specific sub-organization, you can do it from both Root Organization and Sub-organization pages. The only thing you'll need is to set up the Organization Admin role to the user.


Edit existing Users

  1. Within Manage All Organizations, select the needed User and click Edit
  2. On the user page, select Edit and adjust the needed fields
  3. Once done, click Save changes
