Create and configure a user within users.xml

You can edit users.xml to create and configure users in IXIASOFT CCMS Web.

  1. From the Administration menu, click User Management.
  2. Click Edit.
    A message appears saying "users.xml has been checked out."
  3. Create a new user by creating a version of the following XML code that is customized for your new user, replacing the content in square brackets:
    
    			<user active="true">
    				<reference/>
    				<name>
    					<prefix/>
    					<first>[First Name of User]</first>
    					<middle/>
    					<last>[Last Name of User]</last>
    				</name>
    				<location>[Company Division or Geographic Location]</location>
    				<identifier>
    					<domain>[URL of Domain]</domain>
    					<login>[Set the User's Login]</login>
    				</identifier>
    				<email>
    					<type>[Email format, usually "text"]</type>
    					<address>[username@your_domain.com]</address>
    				</email>
    				<roles>
    					<role name="[Valid Role Name]"/>
    				</roles>
    				<groups>
    					<group name="[Valid Group Name]"/>
    				</groups>
    			</user>
  4. Once done, insert your modified code within users.xml, either immediately before or after another user entry.
    Note: If there are any errors in your XML, they are highlighted in red. Errors must be fixed prior to saving the users.xml file.
  5. Click Save.
    A message appears saying: "users.xml has been saved and checked in."
The user has been added to the CCMS. Refresh the CCMS Web for the change to take effect.
