How to Create a User?
There are different ways to create a user in GpsGate:
- Manually (as explained below)
- Batch import users
- Using REST API
Creating a User (Manually)
1. Log in to your application
2. Click the + Add asset... button to add a device. If you want to add another type of user, click the down arrow, and select Create custom asset....Learn more about user types here.
Upon clicking the Create custom asset..., the below window opens. You can now click on User Type and select the type of user as shown below. The + Add asset... button will now read + Create custom asset...
3. Click on Details and fill in the required fields.
4. Click on Save
You've now created your user - myOperator!
*Note: If you select another user type (e.g. + Add asset....), the + Create custom asset... button will now read + Add asset.... This saved history on the button saves time if you need to create another user of the same type. If you need to add a user with another user type, simply click the down arrow to access another user type.
