There are two types of user accounts:
- 'Built-in' user accounts — these are stored in the local database for FishEye/Crucible.
- 'External' user accounts — these are stored in an external directory (e.g. LDAP), if configured. See Configuring External Authentication Sources.
To edit a user's details:
- In the Admin area, click Users under 'User Settings'.
- Locate the user and click the corresponding Edit link.
If the user doesn't initially appear on the screen, type part of their email address and/or select a group to which they belong, and click Filter.
You can update the following fields:
