System Administrators

System Administrators

System Administrators manage users on their own company's account. This provides an initial layer of security for each company's userbase. Managed items includes creating new databases, managing users, customizing push notifications, adjusting project settings, and creating/maintaining Authorization Token Management for the Developer's Toolkit extension.

Manage Users Page

Managing users entails creating individual accounts, customizing security permissions, assigning user's to databases and projects, adding users to teams, and restricting or deleting users. By clicking on the Manage Users button, a system admin can manage all of the above listed features.

  • Create/Edit Teams
    Admins can create new teams and users as well as edit a user's role within Orbital or their details. A user can also be restricted from accessing the entire site by un-checking the Active check box from their details or deleted completely by clicking on the Remove User button.

    *Note that roles within Orbital have a default set of permissions and can be customized for each user.

  • Permissions
    The Permissions tab allows administrators to customize a users overall access to modules, certain pages, an certain actions.

  • Add A Database
    This tab is used to create a new Database. Special characters and spaces are not allowed in database names.

  • Database Assignments
    A user can not see a database unless they are given access in Database Assignments. Assignments are issued to databases on an individual bases. 

  • Project Assignments
    Much like assigning databases the project assignments is used to grant access and visibility for projects to users. Choose a team to grant access for each project. A user will only see assigned project if that database has also been assigned. This will also add user's names to forms within the project.
