Create a new admin account

Admin accounts have the ability to perform certain tasks such as creating new users, viewing usage statistics and configuring which apps users can access.

Note: All Symphony instances should have 2 Super Admin accounts as backup in case the credentials for one account are lost. If both credentials are lost, Symphony will not have access to your instance.

To create a new admin account:

  1. Navigate to Create An Account in the Admin Portal under Accounts.
  2. Enter the Basic Information of the user under the End-User Account tab and select their Role Type as Administrator/Super Administrator.

Notes:

  • The First Name and Last Name fields have a 64 character limit.
  • All other fields have a 256 character limit.
  1. Select whether their password is emailed to them as a link, is automatically generated by Symphony or is set manually.
