Managing Users

[Back to top]

The Users page displays a list of all users, including their name, department, type, active status, email address, and last login time. 

To search the list, in the Filter field, select the name of the column you want to search, then enter the search criteria. 

To view a user's profile, click their name. 

Click the Actions  button to do any of the following:

• Details: See the record creation and update details.

• Download Data: Export data for backup or to import into another tenant. A Workflow Backup file (WFB) downloads with your project. You can then import the file into another tenant using the Migration Manager. 

• View Permission Details: Displays the user's permission details related to workflows, permission groups, projects, users, and custom fields.

• Delete: If you try to delete a user with assigned cases and/or roles, you will have an option of removing the user from all assignments, or replacing them with another user. If the deleted user created or updated any objects, such as scripts or cases, the user’s name will be replaced with Deleted User in those objects.

• Activate/Deactivate: By default, all users are active. Deactivated users will remain in the system but will not be able to log into Workflow. Their name will not show up in searches, and you will not be able to assign anything to them. Deactivated users will be marked as (inactive) everywhere their name appears in Workflow. You can re-activate a user at any time.
