Creating a user

SSO: If you are using SSO (Single Sign-On), you do not need to create users manually. Depending on your setup, you can either import the users from your Active Directory using the HR Feed, or the user can self-register once they are authenticated from the login page.

Creating a new user creates a local account in the application, we call these ‘Forms’ accounts. Forms accounts can be used to provide temporary access outside of your Active Directory authentication, or if you are only using Forms accounts, you can create a new user outside of the self-registration process.

Default privacy settings

You can choose if your new users, created either manually or through self-registration, default to showing or hiding their workplace presence and location information with colleagues. This is a global setting that applies to all new Condeco users created through User management or self-registration. Users can edit this privacy setting in their user profile.

Follow the steps to set the privacy default for new users:

1. Navigate to Advanced setup > Global setup.
2. Select the Personal spaces tab.
   
   Global setup - Personal spaces
3. Default privacy setting for new users: Select Share with colleagues or Hide from colleagues.
   
   1. Share with colleagues: New users are automatically set to show workplace presence and location information to colleagues.
   2. Hide from colleagues: New users are automatically set to hide workplace presence and location information from colleagues.
