Adding users

When adding new users to the Oracle Audience Segmentation application, you will be directed to the Oracle Identity Cloud Service Users page. From that page, you can add the user to the list of users for your organization, update the user's details, and assign them access to the Oracle Audience Segmentation application.

Required privileges to add users and sync users

To add and sync users in Oracle Audience Segmentation, you need the following privileges.

Adding users

There are two main tasks when adding users to Oracle Audience Segmentation:

  1. Add the user to your organization's user list. This is only needed if the user hasn't been added to Oracle Identity Cloud Service previously.
  2. Assign the user access to the Oracle Audience Segmentation application.

Step 1: Add user to user list

You can start adding users to your organization's user list from the Admin page.

Important: If the user was previously added to the Oracle Identity Cloud Service because they have used other Oracle products, then you don't need to add them again. You only need to assign them access to the Oracle Audience Segmentation application. You can skip these steps and go to Step 2: Assign user access to application.

To add a user:

  1. From the Admin page, click Add new user. You will be directed to the Oracle Identify Cloud Service Users page in a new browser window. The Add User dialog will display.

    2. An image of the Add new user button

    If you don't see the Add new user button, you don't have all the required privileges to add users. Review Required privileges to add users and sync users.
