## Manage Users

##### Security Requirements and Controls

- `Manage users` permission

Create and configure user access within LogScale, following step-by-step instructions for adding new users through the Organization Settings interface. For Self-Hosted installations, administrators can enable automatic user creation upon successful login through the AUTO_CREATE_USER_ON_SUCCESSFUL_LOGIN configuration option, while access to user management functions requires either Organization Owner status or the Manage Users permission.

If you want to give a user access to a repository, you will need to make sure that the user exists in the system. To create a new user:

1. Click on the profile menu icon in the upper right corner and select Organization Settings → `Users` on the left.

2. Click + Add User → provide a username → fill in the form with the information required → click Save: the new user will be visible in the `Users` page.

   Figure 103. Creating a User

   Another typical configuration for self-hosted installations of LogScale is to set the configuration option `AUTO_CREATE_USER_ON_SUCCESSFUL_LOGIN` to `true`. This will automatically create the user in LogScale after a successful login.

### Note

You have access to the `Users` page and can add users only if you are the Organization Owner or have been granted with the `Manage users` organization level permission.
