Add a User

Administrators can add users to Opower Analytics Visualization and manage user permissions through the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Identity Access Management (IAM) administration console.

Note:

This procedure can only be completed after you have received a URL to your OCI IAM administration console and created a password. You receive a URL and password creation instructions in an email after your Oracle Utilities Service Delivery Manager has added you to the system.

To set up a user:

  1. Navigate to the OCI IAM administration console you received from your Service Delivery Manager. Tip: Bookmark the URL so that you can easily find it later.
  2. Complete the following procedure to add a new user: Creating a User.
  3. Complete the following procedure to add users to one or more groups: Adding Users to a Group. In most cases, you should assign the user to all four of the groups listed in the table below. The table defines the permissions for each group.
