Configure Users

Use the Users page to enable File Server access for selected users, upload a public key for a user, and specify a user's folder type.

Before configuring users, you should Configure File Server Settings.

1. In Oracle Identity Cloud Service, create users whom you want to access File Server.

   You create and manage users in Oracle Identity Cloud Service. See Manage Oracle Identity Cloud Service Users in Administering Oracle Identity Cloud Service.

   Once added, you can enable their access to File Server.
2. In File Server, search for a user on the Users page.
   1. From the side pane of the Oracle Integration Home page, choose Settings, then File Server, then Users.

      The Users page is displayed, with user identities from Oracle Identity Cloud Service shown.

      The table shows each user's status (configured or not configured), whether they are enabled or disabled, and their home folder. When you hover over a row, icons appear for adding/editing its configuration, deleting its configuration, or viewing user details.

   2. Click , enter a full or partial name to find, and press Enter.
   3. If needed, click to narrow the results list by status (All, Configured, or Enabled/Disabled).

   Hover over a row and click Configure . A user side pane is displayed.

   Field	Description
   Authentication Public Key	If you chose key based authentication as the authentication type on the Settings page, configure the user's public ssh key. Use these key fields to upload, view, or delete the selected user's public key. Click Upload, then Browse, and locate a public key file. The public key must be a valid OpenSSH format key. If needed, delete a public key or upload a new one.
   Home Folder Type	Specify how the home folder is defined for users. User Default: Assigns the selected user a home folder in the default location shown on the Settings page. Group Inherited: Skips assigning the selected user an individual home folder. Instead, the user inherits the home folder of any groups configured for SFTP access of which the user is a member. Custom: Assigns the selected user the home folder you choose. Choose the user's home folder in the fields that display.

4. View user details.
   Hover over a user and click Expand .
   You can see the groups the user is assigned to and the user's home folder path and permissions.

   • If an unconfigured user is part of an active group, all properties from the groups are displayed in the list and the details section and status are grayed out.

   • Click Go to Home Folder Permissions to view and change permissions of the user's home folder.

5. Enable or disable a user.

   Specify whether a selected user can currently access File Server. You can use this setting to configure a user but not enable their File Server access until needed, or temporarily disable their File Server access without removing their public key and permissions.

After configuring users, you must configure group access.
