This feature is only available through business plans.
If you are the Account Owner (the first user created on your account), you can add a new User in the "Manage Users" section of the "Settings" menu. This is a way to provide account role based access.
Viewer Role
Viewer users added will have the following account rights:
- View and Download Recorded Footage
- Live View
- Adjust Email Notifications
Account Owners can optionally grant the following rights:
- Pan-Tilt-Zoom Controls
Users will not be able to:
- Add/Delete Cameras
- Add/Delete Users
- Add/Delete Groups
- Add/Delete Schedules
- View/Modify Camera Settings
Click on settings, then go to "Manage Users". Here you can add or delete users. Click on "Add User" to start.
Enter the new User's Email address and Name, and then select the Group(s) you would like them to have access to:
There are a few options you can choose from when creating the account:
Pan/Tilt/Zoom - the default is to have Pan/Tilt/Zoom unchecked (this gives the user the ability to move the camera position if it has PTZ functionality)
Email Notifications - the default is to have Email Notifications unchecked (when checked this will add the users email to the notification section so they start to received motion and health check events based on camera and account settings)
Download Media - the default is on and allows the user to download normal footage or time-lapse footage (turned off would mean they would get live view only)
Recordings - the default is on and allows the user to view recorded footage, turned off they would just have live view only
Once you click on save, an email will be sent to the user asking them to set up their password. They will now be able to access the cameras via the Web portal or the Mobile app using their email address and the password they chose.
Admin Role
You can also choose to make the new user an "admin" so they can see all cameras and groups, add cameras and tweak camera settings. You are able to select Delete cameras as an additional option, otherwise they won't be able to remove cameras. The Billing option currently has no functionality.
Keep in mind that for additional users, their email address is also the username that they need to use to login.
