In Crowd, users are referred to as user entity objects or just users.
To edit a user's details,

  1. Log in to the Crowd Administration Console.
  2. Click the 'Users' tab in the top navigation bar.
  3. This will display the User Browser. Select the relevant directory, search for the user you want to update, and click the link on the user's name.
  4. This will display the 'User Details' screen.
  5. Edit the details as required, then click the 'Update' button.


To change a user's password,

  1. Log in to the Crowd Administration Console.
  2. Click the 'Users' tab in the top navigation bar.
  3. This will display the User Browser. Select the relevant directory, search for the user you want to update, and click the link on the user's name.
  4. This will display the 'User Details' screen. You can either:
    • Enter the new password, then click the 'Update' button.
      OR
    • Click 'Reset Password' in the left-hand menu. This will generate a new password (i.e. one which you do not know) and email it to the user.
If you have configured an Email Server and a Notification Template, Crowd will send the user an email notification about their new password.
