Configuring Hubs

A default DFLT_[TENANT] hub is created automatically upon provisioning of a tenant. By default all properties within that tenancy are associated to this hub.

You can configure additional hubs and associate a subset of properties with one or more hubs, enabling you to cluster properties according to your business need.

You can then assign one or more hubs to users to grant them access to these properties. If a user is not assigned a hub, the user will not be able to log in. You use hubs in combination with chain and property roles to control user access.
