Change User Scope (API and SDK)

With User Scope, you can enable, disable, or limit API and SDK access.

  • To enable full access, set the User Scope to All.

  • To prevent a Moderator or Admin from making API calls, set the User Scope to None.

  • For limited access, choose Analytics, Search, Content, or SearchUnifyGPT.

Changing API Scope

NOTE.

The term "API Scope" applies to both API and SDK scopes, regardless of the name.

The API Scope for a user can only be changed one at a time. Admins can change the scope for Moderators, but not for other Admins. Moderators cannot change the user scope for anyone, including themselves. A Super Admin can change the API scope for all Admin and Moderator profiles.

Follow these steps to change the API scope:

  1. Navigate to Administration > Manage Users > Users.

  2. In the Action field, click the Edit icon.

  3. Use the Select User Scope dropdown to assign a new scope.

  4. Click the Save icon to save the new settings.
