In Crowd, users are referred to as principal entity objects (or just principals).
To edit a principal's details,
- Login to the Crowd Administration Console.
- Click the 'Principals' link in the top navigation bar.
- This will display the Principal Browser. Select the relevant directory, locate the principal in which you are interested, then click the 'View' link corresponding to the principal.
- This will display the 'Principal Details' screen.
- Edit the details as required, then click the 'Update' button.
To change a principal's password,
- Login to the Crowd Administration Console.
- Click the 'Principals' link in the top navigation bar.
- This will display the Principal Browser. Select the relevant directory, locate the principal in which you are interested, then click the 'View' link corresponding to the principal.
- This will display the 'Principal Details' screen. You can either:
- Enter the new password as required, then click the 'Update' button;
OR
- Click the 'Reset Password' link. This will generate a new password (i.e. one which you do not know) and email it to the user.
If you have configured an Email Server and a Notification Template, Crowd will send the user an email notification about their new password. |
