You must have administrator privileges to access this feature.

Overview

The Admin User Management Panel provides tools to manage user accounts and their associated entities, including projects, datasets, experiments, and deployments. Use this page to:

• View user details and activity summaries

• Manage user entities (datasets, experiments, deployments, and more)

• Transfer entities between users

• Delete individual entities or entire user accounts

Access user management

To open the User Management Panel:

1. In the top navigation bar, click Administration.

   

2. Select USER MANAGEMENT.

The User Management Panel displays a list of users on the left and an entity panel on the right. The current logged-in user is shown at the top of the page.

Page layout

The User Management Panel has two main sections:

USERS panel

The left panel lists all user accounts. Each entry shows:

• Username

• Checkbox for selecting multiple users

• Actions menu for user-specific operations

Note

The Transfer Data button appears at the top of this panel when exactly two users are selected and both are logged out.

Entity panel

The right panel displays entities for the selected user across eight tabs:

• Projects: Projects created by the user

• Datasets: Uploaded or generated datasets

• AutoViz: AutoViz visualizations

• Experiments: Experiments and their results

• Diagnostics: Model diagnostic reports

• MLI: Machine Learning Interpretability reports

• Recipes: Custom recipes

• Deployments: Deployments created by the user

Each entity shows relevant details such as name, size, status, and creation date. Click column headers to sort.

View user details

To view information about a user:

1. In the USERS panel, click the actions menu next to the username.

   

2. Select DETAILS.

The User Details dialog displays:

• Username: Login name

Manage user entities

View entities

To view a user’s entities:

1. Click anywhere in the user’s row in the USERS panel.

2. The Entity panel updates to show that user’s entities.

3. Click tabs at the top of the Entity panel to switch between entity types.

Delete entities

You can delete individual entities without removing the user account.

Note

Projects cannot be deleted individually. All other entity types can be deleted.

To delete an entity:

1. Select a user from the USERS panel.

2. Open the appropriate entity tab in the Entity panel.

3. Click the actions menu next to the entity.

   

4. Select DELETE to confirm the deletion.

Caution

Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. Back up any important data before proceeding.

Transfer data between users

Transfer all entities from one user to another. This is useful for:

• Consolidating data from multiple accounts

• Preserving work before deleting an account

• Reassigning projects to different users

Note

Prerequisites

Before transferring data:

• Select exactly two users

• Verify both users have been logged out

• Confirm you have administrator privileges

Transfer process

To transfer data:

1. In the USERS panel, select exactly two users using their checkboxes.

2. Verify neither user is logged in. The Transfer Data button enables only when both users are logged out.

3. Click TRANSFER DATA.

4. In the Transfer Data dialog:

   

   1. Use the From User toggle to select the source user.

   2. Use the To User toggle to select the destination user.

5. Review your selections.

6. Click CONFIRM.

7. Wait for the transfer to complete.

Important

• All entities move from the source user to the destination user

• Both users must be logged out

• The source account remains but contains no entities after transfer

• Large transfers may take several minutes

Delete a user account

Deleting a user account permanently removes the user and all associated data.

Caution

User deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. All entities (datasets, experiments, models, deployments) are permanently deleted.

Before you begin

Before deleting a user:

• Transfer any data that needs to be retained

• Verify the account is no longer needed

• Ensure the user is logged out

Delete a user

To delete a user account:

1. In the USERS panel, click the actions menu next to the username.

4. Click OK to proceed, or CANCEL to abort.
