There are two types of FishEye user accounts:
  • 'Built-in' user accounts — these are stored in the FishEye database.
  • 'External' user accounts — these are stored in an external directory (e.g. LDAP), if any are configured. See Configuring External Authentication Sources.

Renaming a user changes their login name. To change their Display Name, please see Editing a User's Details.

To rename a user,

  1. Click 'Users' on the 'Admin Menu'.
  2. The 'User Browser' screen will be displayed (see screenshot below), showing a list of users.
  3. Locate the user and click the corresponding 'Edit' link.
    If the user doesn't initially appear on the screen, type part of their email address and/or select a group to which they belong, and click the 'Filter' button.
  4. The 'Edit User' screen will be displayed. Click the 'Rename' link.
  5. The 'Rename user'  screen will be displayed. Type the new username and click the 'Rename' button.
