User Management Screen - Buttons

Action

The Action button provides the following options.

Reset Dashboard

This button will reset the selected User's Dashboard setting, so that the Dashboard will not load automatically when that User opens Confirm.

This can be used if problems with the User's Dashboard cause difficulties when loading Confirm. This button does not permanently block the Dashboard, it only resets the User's auto-loading Dashboard setting.

Reset Workzone

This button will reset the selected User's preferences in ConfirmWorkzone®.

This can be used if a User's preferences result in a very large volume of data being retrieved, causing difficulties logging into ConfirmWorkzone.

The next time the User logs into ConfirmWorkzone® they will be prompted to specify preferences just as if they were logging in for the first time.

Generate API Key

Select the menu option to generate/regenerate the API Key that can be used to authenticate a Web API request, using 'Basic' HTTP Authentication. Authenticating with an API key will not use a license.

The API Key, along with the User ID, are supplied in the Web API request itself instead of having a separate authenticate request beforehand.

Delete User

In order to delete a User from Confirm all child records within all database assets need to be deleted. The 'Delete User' menu can be used to remove these child records (such as settings) from the current database asset for the currently selected User record.

Note: If any non-child references exist within the current database asset such as Job Status Logs, the User cannot be deleted.

This option is only enabled if the current User has 'Delete' privileges for the User screen.

Create

The Create button provides the following options.

New

The New menu will be available if the Current User has User Security permission to Add Users.

Click on the New menu option to create a new User. It will open a New User on a separate screen.

Copy

The Copy menu will be available if the Current User has User Security permission to Add Users.

Click on the Copy menu to copy the existing program rights to a new User on a separate screen.
