Create a user

This article explains how to create a user in the Socotra Insurance Suite.

Key concepts

Users

In Socotra, users are created at the business account level and assigned a tenant scope which designates which tenants a user has access to. They’re also assigned a set of roles which determine what actions the user can execute on those tenants.

Admins

In Socotra, the admin special system-defined that grants the assigned user(s) all permissions to all tenants. While such access is helpful in a learning setting to explore the full extent of system capability, it should be allocated with significant caution in production settings.
