Edit users

If you have LiveCompare Administrator permissions, you can edit the details for any LiveCompare user account as follows. Changes made to a user account take effect the next time the user signs in to LiveCompare.

  1. Select a user from the Administration > Users folder in the LiveCompare hierarchy. Alternatively, select the Users folder and choose a username from the list of registered users.
  2. Modify the fields in the Edit User Profile screen as follows:
Field Description
Username Enter a new username for the account. If the user account was imported from an LDAP server, this field shouldn't be modified unless the username for the LDAP account has been changed.
Role Select either ‘LiveCompare Consumer’ or ‘LiveCompare Editor’ to specify a new role for the user. LiveCompare Consumers or Editors may not be changed to the Administrator role, and the default admin user account created when LiveCompare was installed may not have its role modified.
Description Enter a new description for the user account.
Email address Enter a new email address for the user.
Password

Enter a sign in password for this user. The password is case-sensitive. Note that the requirement for strong passwords is set by default when LiveCompare is configured.
Confirm Password Enter the same password for confirmation. Note that the password fields are not available for user accounts imported from an LDAP server.
Consent to Data Privacy Policy The date and time when the user agreed to the terms of the Tricentis data privacy policy.
User must change password at next login Select this checkbox to require that the user changes their password when they next sign in to LiveCompare. This field is not available for user accounts imported from an LDAP server.
DevOps Teams Select the DevOps teams to which the user is to be assigned. Users are able to access apps that have been assigned to matching DevOps categories (as well as apps that have not been assigned to a category).
  1. Click Save to save your changes. If a user's password has been changed, a notification is sent to the email address associated with their account.

A user account may be renamed by selecting it from the Users folder in the LiveCompare hierarchy and choosing Rename from the context menu. Alternatively, select a user in the hierarchy and select F2. If the user account was imported from an LDAP server, it should not be renamed unless the username for the LDAP account has been changed.

If a user account is renamed, the new name is reflected in all the Resource Groups of which the user is a member.
