Access and roles
Role-based access control for secure IoT operations
Give every user exactly the access they need. Create individual roles that open one function or hundreds, so people see and do only what is right for their job.

What you can control
Granular access, from a single function to a whole toolbox.
Individual roles per user
Create roles that fit each person, instead of one-size-fits-all permissions.
One function or hundreds
A role can give access to a single function or to hundreds of functions in the system.
Least access by default
Give people only what they need, and widen access when the job requires it.
Separate customers
In a multi-tenant setup, customers manage their own users and see only their own data.
Web and mobile
Users can reach the platform from both web and mobile, depending on their licence.
Flexible sign-in
Users log in with their own ID and password, or through single sign-on (SSO) or Active Directory.
How it works

Define a role
Name it after the job, such as operator or manager.
Choose functions
Select which functions the role may use.
Assign users
Give each person the role that fits.
Review
Adjust roles as responsibilities change.
