Manage Users

In sizable organizations, multiple teams often use SearchUnify at the same time. Manage Users section allows administrators to set access permissions, ensuring that teams do not unintentionally modify another team's content sources or search clients. Administrators can add or remove users, alter user roles and scopes, configure a hosted index, give temporary access to SearchUnify support, and integrate identity management software with SearchUnify for enhanced control and security.

Users roles in SearchUnify

SearchUnify features three distinct user roles:

1. Super Admin: Each SearchUnify instance can have one or at most two Super Admins. A Super Admin has the authority to add and remove Admins and Moderators, modify access control settings for any role, and utilize any API

   NOTE. To add or remove a super admin, contact SearchUnify support or your CSM.

2. Admin: An Admin has the capability to add and delete Moderators and to set up access for a Moderator. While an Admin can add new Admins, they cannot delete existing ones.

3. Moderator: A Moderator's role is more restricted. They cannot add or remove users. Their permissions are confined to those assigned by an Admin.
