Manage a user’s access
Carefully considering a user’s access is important to maintain a clear, secure, and shielded environment when having users from different departments, teams, or organizations in your X4 Remote company.
You can manage a user’s access by managing their role(s) and group(s). Every user can have one or multiple roles and be part of one or multiple groups. You can change the roles and groups of users as many times as you like.
