Managing users

Adding new users

1. On Django Admin, click on the Users link in the Accounts section.

   Field name	Contents
   company_name	Company code used in Aerscape (X125, A432, etc).
   qa/qc	Needs to be yes otherwise the import will fail, used as an extra check.
   geofence_shape	Accepts a GeoJSON containing a polygon that delimits the area the user has access to.
   geofence_area_names	As an alternative to the geofence_shape, this can be used to limit users to predefined areas in the platform. Valid area names can be found in Django admin in GEO_DATA → Filter items section and names need to be exact matches.
   Fields with _view and _edit	Granular permissions control, they accept yes or no values. Empty colums means no permissions.

5. Select the CSV file in the input component and submit, the system will process the entries immediately and notify you if anything went wrong directly in the page.

Create test user accounts in dev

Follow directions in Adding new users taking the following extra steps into account:

1. Populate spreadsheet with new users. You can use your e-mail address plus +something_unique so that 2FA e-mails go to you. For example: nicole+test_manager_permissions@aerscape.com forwards any emails sent to your inbox.

2. Set permissions according to user persona.

   NOTE: INFRASTRUCTURE BUILDER IS DEPRECATED AND PERMISSIONS TO VIEW/EDIT INFRASTRUCTURE BUILDER SHOULD ALWAYS BE SET TO 'no'

Once you have created the users, add each e-mail to the SSO exemption list:

1. In Django Admin, go to Accounts → SSO Email Exemption.
2. Click Add sso email exemption.
3. Fill in the user email and click `Save.
4. This will allow you to log in as them using e-mail 2FA.
