  • Name - first and last name of the new user
  • Email - email address of the new user *
  • Description (optional) - additional information about the new user
  • Select the appropriate User Profile from the dropdown list
  • User Profile - user profile dictates the permissions and abilities the new user will have

User profile descriptions:

  • Admin user: The Admin user has full permissions, allowing them to view and modify all settings in the Advanced Console and Portal.
  • Standard user: The Standard user has similar capabilities except they cannot access or manage pricing and user settings in the Advanced Console and Portal.
  • Group user: The Group user is restricted to managing specific Thing Groups. This is useful when you need to monitor or manage the status of particular SIMs for certain end users.
