Add Users to a Visitor Role
When you add a user to a role, you grant that user access to all of the portal resources to which that role is assigned. If you want to add a specific user or a set of users that do not already belong to a group to a Visitor Entitlements role, use these instructions to select the users one at a time and add them to a role.
If you have a considerable amount of users you want to add to a role, for the best performance add users to groups, then create roles with those groups, or create roles with expressions.
To add users to a Visitor Role:
Notes: If a list of groups is not displayed, make sure you have built a group hierarchy tree for the authentication provider. If after that you still do not see a list of groups, the authentication provider probably does not allow read access (see View Security Provider Properties to find out). However, you can activate a text field for user name entry for authentication providers that do not allow read access.
If you are using an RDBMS authentication provider, be aware of case sensitivity when looking up users. For example, user "Bob" is different than user "bob.
