Adding a User or Providing Access to Brightmetrics

Giving someone the ability to access Brightmetrics is simple!

Setting your new users up for success means showing them what Brightmetrics is capable of and giving them some perspectives to play around with. Here are a few things we've done to make setting up new users not only easy but also to get them started off on the right foot:

• We have created some great templates for you to choose from so the new users can visualize and report on key metrics that are pertinent to their daily focuses.
• You can make templates from the dashboards and reports that were previously created by yourself and others.
• Or, give the new users specific access and permissions on those reports and dashboards that are owned by others.

Adding a user

If you are not a Genesys Premium App user, you'll add a user by following the steps below.

1. 1

   Navigate to the Administrator Tools page and then the Users tab.

2. 2

   Click the Add New User button.

   

3. 3

   Roles — Roles define the permission or access level of the new user. Ensure you are giving the new user the correct permissions based on what they will be doing in Brightmetrics. As a role is selected, a note beneath the role will state what the user will have access to. Standard system roles include:

   Administrator	All permissions and access, including Administrator Tools.
   Report & Dashboard Creator	Ability to view, create, edit, share and schedule dashboards and reports.
   Restricted User	View-only access to dashboards and reports shared with them. This user will not be able to create or edit any dashboards or reports.

   A user's role can be modified on the Users page within Administrator Tools at any time.

   Additional Permissions — There are two additional boxes for permissions you can assign to a user:

   Enable Insights	Allows the user to run staff forecasting reports via the Insights tab.
   Disable Admin Notifications	Only selectable if you assigned the user the Administrator role. This will disable email notifications to this user about data connections or billing issues.

   The last page of the wizard provides an overview of the user you're creating. Verify their name, email, role, and all permissions/access being provided. Once verified, click Add User.
