2. Adding Users

The method of adding users varies by MISO installation.

If you were able to log in at the beginning of this tutorial using a user name and/or password you chose, you can add new users.

1. On the left hand menu under the User Administration section, click Users.
2. Click the Add button at the top left of the table.
3. Enter the new user's login name (all one word), email, and a password.
4. Click Save in the top right corner.

If you were able to log in at the beginning of this tutorial using a user name and password that you use for other services at your institute, users cannot be manually added by administrators. Users must be added by IT; once added, users can log in to MISO using their existing credentials (LDAP or Active Directory).
