Assign a role to a user

Once you have created a user, you can assign roles.

  1. In TEXTML Administration perspective, right-click the Content Store node and select CCMS Admin > Manage Users.
    The User Manager window opens.
    Note: MadCap Software recommends that you avoid directly editing the users.xml file. The User Manager window has built-in validation mechanisms to reduce errors.
  2. Select the user's name in the Users list.
    The Roles list displays all the roles that have been configured in your Content Store.
  3. Select all roles that apply for the selected user.

  4. Click Check In Document (check in manager icon).
  5. Inform users of the changes.
    The changes will be applied automatically once users close and then reopen their CCMS Desktop. Users can also apply the changes without restarting their CCMS Desktop by clicking IXIA CCMS > Synchronize Configuration. Additionally, refresh IXIA CCMS Web so that users will see the change reflected there.
