Micad Pro - How System Administrators can setup Self-register

K
Written by Khizer Islam

Register account (Self-register setup for system administrators)

Register account allows new users to apply for an account. The self-register feature is not enabled by default and will not allow access unless whitelists and roles are set up first.

A system administrator can set the roles in advance that would be granted during self-register requests. The system administrator needs to whitelist the allowed domain or domains that will require self-registration.

Once the account is created the new user is automatically granted the rights that are set by aligning with their roles to an email domain.

A user may only register and gain access to HUB only if you define the rules. The most typical use case for self-register is to access the read only data of Portals. However, admins can grant user roles from HUB as they choose.

Note : IPR remains firewalled and private regardless of user account rights. If your solution requires a partner or organisation to access IPR, the existing firewall exception logging process remains and IP address are needed.

A system administrator needs to gather a list of domains that might require access.

  • My-asbestos-consultants.uk

  • Property-surveys.uk

  • Architects-and-engineers.uk

For each domain added to the whitelist, you can assign separate roles. In the above examples, my-asbestos-consultants.uk a scenario might mimic the rights where an asbestos consultant is reviewing your data in preparation to visit site to update data or to participate in a tender for new work. You may wish to allow access to the IPR and or Portal.

What Admins will need to enable self-register?

Gather the following information and log a ticket with Micad support.

  1. Domain Names
    ​

    For each domain, set out the user roles that you require. Prepare a list of the domains and list our as follows.

    This part of an email address is known as Email Domain “cliffw@my-asbestos-consultants.uk ”
    ​
    ​

  2. User Rights
    ​

    A user’s access permissions (Roles) are visible in the Admin Centre. Go to Users, select a user and review the list.
    ​

    Jot down the list as required. In this instance, the following roles might be typical
    ​IPRSubscriber, AsbestosAdmin, PortalsSubscriber, AsbestosPortalViewer, MapPortalViewer
    ​
    ​

  3. System ID
    ​

    System ID is visible in the top right of IPR and Portals under your login name “devalpha”.
    ​

    For example: In your ticket with Micad support, the communication would read. I want Self Registration enabled for:
    ​

    Domain: my-asbestos-consultants.uk
    ​User rights: IPRSubscriber, AsbestosAdmin, PortalsSubscriber, AsbestosPortalViewer, MapPortalViewer
    ​System ID: devalpha
    ​

The support ticket will therefore record a formal correspondence as request for opening up access to potential third parties. The format of the information is important.
