Managing Admin Tool User Accounts

About

This guide is to help you manage users within the MazeMap Admin Tool, including adding, editing, and removing users at both the customer and campus levels. It also covers security measures and prerequisites for user management.

Where possible it is suggested to manage the users at the customer level.

MazeMap now supports SAML login to the Admin Tool from your authentication provider, allowing an extra level of security. Log a Support Ticket for this to be enabled on your campus.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure the following:

  • Confirm that your MazeMap Admin User has "Useradmin" rights. If you do not have these rights, log a support ticket to request access.

  • Any changes to a user will require the affected user to log out and log back in to the Admin Tool.

Notes

  • User Management Access: MazeMap supports managing users at either the customer-level (all campuses) or each campus.

  • Role Assignment: Roles can be assigned or updated for users at both customer and campus levels.

Security and Password Management

  • Password Security: MazeMap will never ask for your password via email except for the initial login.

  • Do not share passwords: It is recommended not to share accounts; instead MazeMap recommends that each user has their own account.

  • Security Breaches: Report any security breaches to MazeMap Support immediately.
