User management

This guide shows you how to add, update, and export users and admins to the Admin Center. Both the user group and the admin group have control and access to the H2O AI Managed Cloud (HAMC) environment.

Click User management on the left-navigation bar or click Visit on your Dashboard, to access the subsection.

  • When users are added or updated (either individually, or in bulk), the change will be auto-updated and reflected on the UI instances of all other users who are logged into the same instance of Admin Center in HAMC.

  • If you have an external Identity Provider (IdP), and the users/admins you want to add to the system are not already set up in Okta, you need to configure the users through your own IdP before adding them to the system.

    However, if you wish to proceed without configuring the user through your own IdP, click the Proceed anyway button on the warning alert. This will create a local user in H2O.ai Okta. Create user in h2o.ai okta

User management commit history

note

When a user is sourced from an Identity Provider (IdP), the Status column displays the suffix '- IdP' alongside the user status to indicate the user's source.

Example: If the user 'h2o-tester-admin@h2o.ai' is sourced from an IdP and the status is 'Suspended', the Status column for that user will be Suspended - IdP.
