User Management

The administrator can import, delete, activate or deactivate users, from the User Management section of the Settings page. You can import Active Directory users and enable single sign-on functionality for them using the Active Directory tabs. To learn more about Active Directory, click here. The SAML configuration tab can be used to configure single sign-on with third party applications. To learn more about setting up a SAML configuration, click here

 

The following sections are covered in this documentation:

Roles in Zoho Analytics

There are three roles in Zoho Analytics.

Server Administrator

The Zoho Analytics user who sets up the application will automatically become the Server Administrator. This role is not transferable. Server administrators can manage the application by configuring email settings, proxy settings, etc. To learn more about the various application settings, click here

Manager

Users with the Manager role can create their own workspaces, be added as administrators to other workspaces and have read/write access to views shared to them.  

Additionally, Zoho Analytics administrators can delegate permissions to perform admin level changes such as adding or editing users, managing licenses, etc.

Viewer

Viewers can be provided read permissions to tables, reports and dashboards. However, viewers cannot:

  • Create new views or workspaces
  • Edit or share the shared views

Adding users

You can add users in Zoho Analytics in three ways:

Add users individually

You can easily add users in Zoho Analytics by following the steps below:

  • Click the Add User button in the Users tab.

  • Enter the display name, login name and the email addresses of the user to be added.

    A login name can contain the following characters: Lowercase {a-z}, Uppercase {A-Z}, Number {0-9}, Symbols {Hyphen(-), Period(.), Underscore(_)}. Please note that the login names can begin or end with letters and numbers but not symbols.

  • Choose the desired role from the User Role drop-down.
    • Select the Allow user to perform configuration changes checkbox to enable users with the Manager role to perform admin level changes such as adding or editing users, managing licenses, etc.
  • Select the Enable Single sign-on button if you wish to let users access Zoho Analytics seamlessly, without providing any login credentials. The Enable Single sign-on option will only be available if the SSO settings are configured in the SAML Configuration page. To learn more about single sign-on and to set up SAML configurations, click here.
    • For new SSO users, you can also choose to enable or disable emails being triggered with their login information using the Send login details via e-mail checkbox.
  • Click Save to add the user.

To edit the user information, click the Edit icon that appears on mouse over the required user from the user list view.

Import users from CSV

Zoho Analytics allows you to  add a group of users to Zoho Analytics by importing CSV files containing several user's details. Follow the steps below to import users from CSV files. 

  • Click the CSV Import button in the top right corner of the Users tab.

  • In the page that appears, browse and select the CSV file, and click Import Users.

  • Map the display name, login name and email address to the corresponding columns in your CSV file.

    A login name can contain the following characters: Lowercase {a-z}, Uppercase {A-Z}, Number {0-9}, Symbols {Hyphen(-), Period(.), Underscore(_)}. Please note that the login names can begin or end with letters and numbers but not symbols.

  • Choose the desired role from the User Role drop-down.
    • Select the Allow user to perform configuration changes checkbox to enable users with the Manager role to perform admin level changes such as adding or editing users, managing licenses, etc.
  • Select the Enable Single Sign-on option if you want to enable single sign-on for the imported users, and choose the required configuration. To learn more about single sign-on, click here.
    • For new SSO users, you can also choose to enable or disable emails being triggered with their login information using the Send login details via e-mail checkbox.​
  • Click Import.

The details of the import process will be displayed in the import summary page.

Note: The import process will fail if the number of users you import exceed the available license limit. To proceed with the import process, you can reduce the number of users being imported, or upgrade your license

Import users from Active Directory 

Zoho Analytics also enables you to import your Active Directory users easily. Once an Active Directory domain is added to Zoho Analytics, navigate to the Active Directory Import tab of the User Management page. To add a new Active Directory domain, and learn more about Active Directory, click here.

Pre-requisite: To import users from Active Directory, ensure you are able to ping the domain controller from the server where Zoho Analytics is installed.

You can add users from Active Directory in two ways: 

Follow the steps below to import Active Directory users from the Users tab.

  • Click the Active Directory Import button under the User Management page.
  • Select the required Active Directory domain, enter your credentials and click Next.

  • Search for and choose users individually, or select the required Organizational Units (OUs).
  • Choose the desired role from the User Role drop-down.
  • Enable the Send login details to all new users via e-mail checkbox to share the login details to all the new Active directory users via email.
  • Select the Allow user to perform configuration changes checkbox to enable users with the Manager role to perform admin level changes such as adding or editing users, managing licenses, etc.
  • Click Import to import your Active Directory users.

​​

Follow the steps below to import Active Directory users from the Active Directory tab.

  • In the Active Directory Import tab, click the Import Users(s) icon that appears on the mouse over the required Active Directory name.

  • In the page that appears, you can choose to import users individually, or import entire Organizational Units (OUs).
  • Choose the desired role from the User Role drop-down.
  • Enable the Send login details to all new users via e-mail checkbox to share the login details to all the new Active directory users via email.
  • Select the Allow user to perform configuration changes checkbox to enable users with the Manager role to perform admin level changes such as adding or editing users, managing licenses, etc.
  • Click the Import button to proceed with the import process.

Note: Active Directory users need to select their appropriate Active Directory domain while logging in to Zoho Analytics.

Note:

  • Mail server configuration is mandatory to add new users or share views in Zoho Analytics.
  • Sharing a view to a new user will automatically create a user account. User login credentials will be sent via email.

Managing Users

Zoho Analytics enables you to manage all your users from the Manage Users tab on the Settings page. All users added to the Zoho Analytics application will be listed here. You can edit, enable SSO, remove, change user roles, activate, deactivate, and reset password for users from here.

Editing the user information

    analytics-on-premise-help/analytics-edit-user-dialog

Enabling Single Sign-On

Zoho Analytics supports single sign-on functionality to allow users to access Zoho Analytics seamlessly, without having to provide login credentials. 

There are two options to enable single sign-on for users:

  1. Single sign-on via SAML authentication: This option works best when you wish to use one of your in-house applications as an authentication provider. If users are already logged in to the application that is acting as the authentication provider, they will be logged in to Zoho Analytics automatically.
  2. Single sign-on via Active Directory: This option is exclusive to users imported into Zoho Analytics via Active Directory. 

Once a single sign-on configuration is set up, single sign-on can be enabled for existing users easily. 

To enable/disable single sign-on for users who use local authentication:

  • Navigate to the Third-party SSO tab under the User Management page.
  • Click the Edit SAML Configuration icon that appears on mouse over the required SAML configuration.
  • To enable single sign-on, select the users from the Available Users list and move them to the Single Sign-on Users list.
  • To disable single sign-on, select the required users from the Single Sign-on Users list and move them to the Available Users list.
  • Click Save Configuration to save the changes. 

Click here to learn more.

To enable/disable single sign-on for Active Directory users:

  • If single sign-on is configured for a particular Active Directory domain, the single sign-on functionality is automatically enabled for all Active Directory users associated to that domain.
  • To disable single sign-on for Active Directory users, navigate to the Active Directory SSO tab of the Users and click the Disable SSO Configuration button that appears on mouse over the configuration.

Deleting users

To remove a user from Zoho Analytics, navigate to the Manage Users tab from the Settings page and click the Delete icon that appears on mouse over the required user name. In the confirmation pop-up, click the Delete button.
