🤓 Who can do this? You will need to be an admin user to manage other users.
🚨 Careful! Atlan currently does not support deleting users from your Atlan instance. Deleting a user may adversely impact your ability to audit assets, transfer ownership of assets and custom metadata, and more. Atlan recommends that you deactivate users instead.
Change a user's role
To change a user's role:
- From the left menu of any screen, click Admin.
- Under Workspace, click Users.
- Under the Role column, on a given user's row, click the role name.
- Under Change Role select the new role to give the user, and then click Change.
That's it, the user's role has now been changed! 🎉
Deactivate a user
To deactivate a user:
- From the left menu of any screen, click Admin.
- Under Workspace, click Users.
- Scroll the table all the way to the right, if necessary.
- On an active user's row, click the 3-dot menu button.
- Click Disable user, and then Disable.
That's it, the user is now deactivated and will no longer be able to access Atlan. 😢
Disabled user accounts do not count towards the total number of Atlan licenses procured by your organization.
🚨 Careful! If the user you want to deactivate is a connection admin, you will need to ensure that other users can manage the connection before deactivating the account. You can modify a connection to add more connection admins.
Reactivate a user
To reactivate a user:
- From the left menu of any screen, click Admin.
- Under Workspace, click Users.
- Scroll the table all the way to the right, if necessary.
- On a deactivated user's row, click the 3-dot menu button.
- Click Enable user, and then Enable.
That's it, the user can once again access Atlan! 🎉
💪 Did you know? Atlan has a retention policy of 60 days for user login events. If a user has not logged into Atlan for more than 60 days, the Last Active column will display
- for the user.
