User management in BOT Manager
Add new user
The steps shown below will provide a clear understanding on how to add a new user to the BOT Manager. In order for a user to have access to the features of BOT Manager, the user must be first added by the admin.
1. Open BOT Manager, click on the Gear Icon and select the Designer.
Once we click on the Designer option, it will redirect to AppForm’s designer window.
2. Click on the Manage Security.
On the top left of the window, you will have to click on Manage Security Tab.
Manage Security Wizard will be displayed after clicking on Manage security.
3. Click on the User Management.
From the available options, click on the User Management Icon and then click on the ADD user at the bottom of the manage security window.
4. Add user details.
Provide the required User details, select appropriate role, create a password and then click on save button.
You will see four roles while adding a new user. Select the appropriate user role as mentioned below.
| Default Roles | Permission |
| User | This role has the limited permission in BOT Manager. This role can access only home page and workflow dashboard where the forms are hosted. |
| Administrator | This role has full permission in Bot Manager. |
| Designer | This role can view the designer as well as home page but No Access to ”Security”, “Navigation Settings” and “Manage Tenant”. |
| Limited Access | The user will have the Designer privilege without workflow feature access. |
While adding a new user, in the “Is ADUser” field you will see a dropdown in which you can select Yes or No. If you select ‘Yes’ then user can login via windows authentication and it is not required to create a separate password. If you select ‘No’, user can login via Forms authentication and password has to be created for the same.
After completing the steps, a new user will get added and the details will be shown in the list of users in BMT.
To provide the user Permission
1. Go to Security Tab.
To set the permission, Go to security tab in BOT Manager and under the user tab click on edit button next to the user.
