This topic describes how to create and manage users and roles in Rebilly.

To effectively manage your team and the roles within it, create roles before you start adding users.

  6. In the Description field, enter a description of the role.
  7. In the Junior roles field, add related junior roles by clicking in the input field.
  8. In the Permissions field, enter individual permissions. For a list of permissions, see User permissions.
    Note: When you create a new user, you can also assign custom permissions to the user from role templates that have been created by Rebilly. For more information, see Add a new user.
  9. Optionally, in the Allowed IPs field, enter a list of permitted IP addresses which the role can use to access Rebilly.
    This role inherits any IP restrictions that are assigned to the junior positions that are associated with the role.

      For more information, see Multi-Factor authentication (MFA).

Multi-Factor authentication (MFA)

Multi-Factor authentication (MFA) provides additional security during the sign-in process by requiring more than one form of identity verification to authenticate a user. This involves the use of a smart device (phone, tablet, and so on) and an authentication application, such as Google Authenticator, or Duo Security. The user is required to use a password and an authentication code from the authentication application. If a password is compromised, a malicious user would need the related authentication device, and access to the authentication application, to sign in.

The use of MFA is optional in Rebilly, but highly recommended.

Warning

If you enable 2FA on your account but do not complete the set up using an authentication application you will be locked out of your account. If you cannot access your account, contact Support.
