Account management
Note: this document is intended for Admins and Power Users within your Connec2 Workspace.
Your Connec2 Workspace can only be accessed with a valid Connec2 Account. All accounts are managed in the Connec2 Management Console. Connec2 uses role-based access: depending on the role assigned to your account you can (or can’t) use specific features.
In this guide you’ll learn about the available roles and how to create new or edit existing accounts. We provide a simple set of roles to help you onboard users quickly.
Roles
Here is a quick summary of the available roles. For detailed capabilities, see Role authorizations below.
| Role | Description | Can create, edit & delete users |
|---|---|---|
| Admin | Full access to Workspace and all features | Admin, Power User, User & Guest |
| Power User | Access to most features | User & Guest |
| User | Basic access | No |
| Guest | Can access Workspace, no features enabled | No |
