Users
Note: Only users with an Administrator role can manage users.
Use the Manage Users page to manage the users in your Cisco XDR organization. From this page, you can enable and disable the Allow non-admin users feature, view the user’s email address and name, search for users, and manage their role and status. You can also invite users to join your Cisco XDR organization and manage invitations.
Check the Allow non-admin users to log in check box to use the logged in user’s credentials and identity when interacting with Secure Endpoint APIs. We recommend that you enable this feature if your organization is entitled to Secure Endpoint.
To enable the feature in the Secure Endpoint integration, edit the integration and check the Act in the name of Active User check box in the Edit Integration area. For details on editing an integration, see Integrations.
Use the Confirmed Users tab to view all of the users in your organization, search for users, and invite users. From this page, you can invite users, search for users, change the user role, disable or enable an account, and filter the list of users by including or excluding disabled user accounts.
By default, all the users within the current organization are displayed in the list of confirmed users. You can search, filter, and sort the confirmed users to display only those users you want to view.
Search Users
Enter the search criteria in the Search field on the Confirmed Users tab to search for users by email and name. The users that match your search criteria are displayed in the list of confirmed users.
Filter Users
Check or uncheck the Include Disabled Users check box to filter the list of Confirmed Users to include or exclude disabled user accounts. The disabled user account emails and names are displayed as [Private].
Sort Users
Click the (Sort) icon in the column headers in the Confirmed Users table to sort the users alphabetically.
You can invite users to join your organization via Cisco XDR if you are logged in with a Security Cloud Sign On account as an Administrator user. For details, see the Cisco Security Cloud Sign On Quick Start Guide.
