Mapping Proficy Authentication Groups

Mapping to Proficy Authentication groups helps with user management, access control, and security within Operations Hub.

User accounts created in Proficy Authentication represent people who need to access Operations Hub. Each user is associated with an identity provider (UAA, LDAP, SAML) and a set of groups that determine their permissions and access levels within Operations Hub. The authentication credentials for users associated with LDAP/SAML are verified by the identity provider before they can access Operations Hub. These are the different types of users in Operations Hub:
Type of User Description
Site administrator This user creates tenants and tenant administrators using the Site Admin Console application. This user is created automatically when installing Operations Hub. You cannot access, modify, or delete this user from the Designer.
Tenant administrator This user manages the user accounts of developers and application users. The first tenant administrator is created automatically when installing Operations Hub. You cannot delete this user from the Designer.
Developer This user creates applications using Operations Hub.
Application user This user accesses applications created using Operations Hub.
Groups in Proficy Authentication are created for specific type of users, likely to perform the same type of activities. You can create groups based on user roles, responsibilities, or permissions, and then assign users to these groups. This allows you to manage user permissions and access levels at the group level instead of managing individual users.
