User Administration for Aurora Ingest
User administration for Aurora Ingest clients is done within Tools | User
Administration in Aurora Ingest - Server. With this administrative feature, a system
administrator can create user accounts, user groups and specify permissions according
to user groups or user accounts.
By specifying permissions, an administrator can control who can access Aurora
Ingest applications and what actions can be performed. By default, users are granted
permissions for all tasks and access to all Aurora Ingest components when you
initially create user accounts. You can deselect permissions that are not to be assigned
to the particular user or the particular group.
For a smooth operation, it is best to create user groups with specific permissions to
each group and configure channel groups before assigning them to users. Therefore;
once you select group and channel group for the user, pre-configured permissions
would be automatically set up as well.
It is mandatory for users to belong to groups. Groups have permission granted or
denied to access the following tasks and components:
