Manage Users

Security Requirements and Controls

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.

    Screenshot of the LogScale 'Add User' form interface showing input fields for entering new user account information such as username, email, and name. The form appears after clicking the '+ Add User' button in Organization Settings > Users and includes a 'Save' button at the bottom to confirm creation. This user management interface is only accessible to Organization Owners or users with the 'Manage users' permission.

    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.
