Adding a user

Adding an AroPoint user is useful if you want to create custom levels of visibility as opposed to giving all users Full Access.

 

To add an AroPoint user:

  1. From the Map view, click (cogs icon).
  2. Click Add user .
  3. From the Main tab, type the user's email address in the Email field.
  4. In the Available maps section, select the map types you'd like the user to be able to access.
  5. Create a password for the user and confirm it.
  6. From the Objects tab, select the objects that you want this user to be able to view.
  7. Save.

Permissions tab

The Permissions tab contains three access plans:

  • AroPoint Standard - allows AroPoint Admin users to view, edit and delete information from the Map, and create other AroPoint users
  • AroPoint Supervisor - allows Supervisors to view and edit information, but not delete
  • AroPoint Read Only - allows only viewing of the information.

Click the Plan dropdown to select the right plan for the user you are creating.

 
 

Select AroPoint Profile

If you want to link this AroPoint GPS profile to an AroFlo user, go to the Feature Access tab on the user's card in Site Admin and select the user from the Select AroPoint Profile dropdown.

If you want to log in as this user to see what access and visibility they have, click the (cog icon) next to the user and select Log in as. The Map view will open and you can see what objects display, which menu options will be available, etc. To switch back to view the map as yourself, simply refresh the page (F5).
