Once roles have been set up for your company, users can be set up and assigned the roles that provide the appropriate level of access.
To get started in working with users in darwin Cloud
- Click Security menu
- Click Users submenu
- Click new
Fill in the following:
- username
- password
- confirm password
- Click start
tips:
- remember these passwords are temporary, user will make their own secret password at first login
- must be 8 alphanumeric with uppercase, and special character
- passwords need to be strong

When a new user is first created, the system knows almost nothing about them. Here is what user should fill in:
- first name
- last name
- roles
- companies
- offices
- accounts
Link Agent User Profiles to their Data
The Agents role allows agents to log into darwin Cloud and run any reports assigned to that role. To automatically filter the reports for that agent's data, the following step should be taken when setting up the agent
Once you are on the user profile
- Check the box next to Agents
- Click the magnifying glass to search for the agent profile
- Enter a portion of the agent's name
- Click search
- Select the agent's name from the list
- Click save
This step will create a filter that will restrict reports to display data only for that user. The filter will only affect reports that have a person filter parameter.

roles
Roles control which screens a user can use in darwin Cloud - and what reports they can run. For each role user select which screens that role can use and by controlling which buttons they can click.
