Create Monitor users

By default, from the log-in screen, anyone can create their own read-only user and have read-only access to the Monitor. However, administrators can change this default so that only administrators can create users. See Only allowing administrators the ability to create users.

 Create a read-only user from the log-in screen

  1. Click Create New User.

    Note

    If the Create New User link is not available, then the administrator has changed the default behavior so that only administrators can create new users. Contact your Monitor administrator to have them create a new user.

  2. Fill in the information for the new user.

    An email address is only required if you want to receive email alerts from the Monitor. Contact your Monitor administrator to change your user type to operator or administrator, and sign you up to receive email alerts. See Sending alert emails.

When logged in, administrators can create any type of user, including other administrators.
