User management controls who can access PMM and what actions they can perform. Every user who logs into PMM has a specific role assigned, which determines their permissions.
User management defines who can access PMM and what actions they are allowed to perform:
-
Users: Individual accounts that can log in to PMM with unique credentials.
-
Roles: Predefined permission sets that determine what users can do. The Admin role, for example, allows creating and deleting user profiles, while other roles may have more limited permissions.
-
Permissions: Specific actions or tasks that a role authorizes. Permissions are role-based—users inherit all permissions associated with their assigned role.
This section covers the following user management operations:
- Add users: Create new user accounts and assign roles
- Edit users: Modify user profiles and change assigned roles
- Delete users: Remove user accounts from the system
!!! note Only users with the Admin role can perform user management tasks.
User capabilities depend entirely on the role assigned to them. For a comprehensive overview of available roles and their associated permissions, see Access control in PMM.
