Managing users

Roles and users concept

In WebHMI, there is a mechanism for managing users and their roles. The roles give or forbid access to certain project parts, while the users are binded to these roles.

You can access the user setup from pop-up menu (for 3.6 and higer fw)

Or from the side menu (for 3.5 and lowe fw)

Managing roles

On a new device, there are 3 roles configured by default:

Admin role

Can perform any actions in the project. This role with id = 1 can not be deleted from the project and only one property can be changed - its title.

Other roles

The non-admin roles (id <> 1) can be freely configured. In the scratch new project there are 2 pre-configured roles for your convenience.

  • Operator - can navigate most of the project and change values ​​on the dashboards
  • Read-only user - can only view the project (can't change anything)
Role configuratin page

Admin can add as many roles and users as needed. Users management page is located at Configuration→Users page. There is also a button for switching to the role editing page.

The user can specify a name, a password and a home page:

For each role, you can add permissions for accessing parts of the project for viewing or editing. The following is an example of setting up a predefined role “Operator”:
