Granting user access to the web portal

2024-10-24

Before a user can access the Genetec ClearID™ web portal, you must grant them the required permissions for the website.

What you should know

The identity that you want to grant access to must exist in the system.
To grant a user permission to access the website, you must be an account administrator.
Some organizations don’t enable web portal access for some or all of their identities because their organization does not require employee requests or web portal access.

Procedure

Click Organization > Identities .
Search for a user or select one from the Identities list.
Click User permissions.
In the User permissions section, click or slide the Web portal access slider to Enabled to grant access to the web portal.
If the slider is disabled the identity cannot access the web portal.
In the Username field, enter a valid email address.
In the User type list, select User for default user access to the web portal.
Click Save to confirm your changes.

The selected identity now has access to the web portal with the default User privileges.
