Creating a User
To create a user, follow these steps:
Click Security in the left tree menu. A list of security items appears.
Click Users.
Click the target user.
Click the Create tab.
Enter a name for the user in the User Name field.
[OPTIONAL] Enter a description for the user.
Enter a password.
Re-enter the password in the Confirm Password field.
If the user is to be authorized externally by LDAP or Kerberos, enter one or more Distinguished Names (LDAP) or User Principals (Kerberos) in the External Names section. For details on external authorization, see External Security in Securing MarkLogic Server.
Under the Roles section, check the roles to assign the user.
[OPTIONAL] Create default permissions for this user: Select a role and pair the role with the appropriate capability (read, insert, update). If there are more than 3 default permissions you want to add for this user, you can do so on the next screen after you click OK.
[OPTIONAL] Create default collections for this user: Type in the collection URI for each collection you want to add to the user’s default collection. If there are more than 3 default collections you want to add for this user, you can do so on the next screen after you click OK.
Click OK.
The user is now added to the system and the user configuration page appears. If you want to add more default permissions or collections to the user, scroll down to the section for default permissions or collections.
