IAM (Roles and Users) section

IAM

 

 


The Identity Access Management menu allows you to set up the process for identifying, authenticating and authorizing resources in your organization to have access to Vidaoo features.

Since some members of your organization may have limited access to specific functions, in this section you can create group profiles (roles) and users that belong to them.

We suggest you follow the following configuration steps:

  • check the default Roles provided by Vidaoo and, if they don't meet your needs, create new custom Roles

  • create the Vidaoo Users and define, for each of them, the Role corresponding to the functions they have in the organization

Roles

In this section you will find all the existing Roles, both the predefined ones and those created by you, for your Account:

Each Role is a set of permissions that will be applied to Vidaoo Users who are part of it (remember that it is mandatory to choose a role when adding a user to the system).

Here you can create new Roles, view and change custom Roles, and so on.

 

You can use the command bar on the up right side in order to:

  • Create: create a new role 

  • Edit: edit and eventually update the role selected from the list (this action is not allowed on default roles)

  • Delete: permanently delete the role selected from the list (this action is not allowed on default roles)

  • Refresh: refresh the table rows view

  • Filter: hide/show filters

  • Export: export the current table rows in a csv file

 

Filter View

Use the fields at the top of the columns to filter the list of items showing only those that meet certain conditions:

Click  and insert the string to filter:

When a filter is applied the funnel icon is displayed near the column name: 

Remember to delete the filter when you don't need it anymore.

Default Roles

Before creating new custom Roles, have a look to the already existing Roles you find in Vidaoo (they are tagged with in the column Default).

Default Roles cannot be deleted or modified, but new and flexible roles can be easily created in order to customize the list of permissions that you want to grant to Vidaoo users.

 

Here you find the list of the Permissions allowed to each existing default Role (you can inspect them by selecting a Role line and then click on  Edit):

 

 

 

 

Each authorization refers to the context in which it is applied (for example: Join, Meeting, Buttons, Automations, etc.) and to the specific action granted (for example: Create, Close, Remove, Update, etc.) when a User who is part of this Role is operating in it. See the info box Permission List below for additional information.

 

Custom Roles

Since the default Roles are not editable, you may find it useful to create a few that best suit your organization.

Let's use the command (on the up right side of the Role panel) Create to define a new Role:

  • Choose a Name for the role

  • Select (among those available in the list) the Permissions to be assigned to the Role (click one by one on all those chosen)

At the end, click on Save and your Role will be created  

Custom Roles will be tagged with  in the Column Default.

  • Delete: permanently delete the user selected from the list

Create a User

Click and enter the User details:

 

  • Enable or disable the User. Anytime you want to temporarily disable a User you can switch this selector off.

  • Enable or disable the use of the Interface.

    • Dashboard user enabled: the user can access the GUI.

    • Dashboard user disabled: the user can’t access the GUI (no password request). The user is just associated to an APIKEY (token) to call the server in case of app integrations.

  • Username

  • Email

  • Password

  • Roles (even more than one, selected from the list of the existing custom and default Roles):

 

 



Edit a User

Select the user and then click on :

Now click on Update and you will be able to modify the User Role:

At the end the changes.

You can also Delete a user here or use the specific icon  in the User list.

 

Generate API Token

Vidaoo Administrators (with Token Access Permission enabled) can generate API Tokens for each User.

API tokens can be used to as part of APIKEY authentication for integrations.

 

You can view, add, delete and manage API tokens for each user in the users list. Select a user and click  on the command bar and then Create :

Insert the name (Label) of the Token and click Generate:

Now it is very important you copy the Token ID (this is the only time you can do it!) and paste it carefully somewhere:

Now your token is ready to be used for integration purposes.
