Manually create users in Studio
Add new users in Studio by using the button "add new"
Remember that a Cobundu user needs to be linked to an IWMS user in order to have certain rights (eg to make a reservation or to book a ticket). So make sure the users exist in MCS first, this way you can link them during the upload.
UID (Unique ID within Studio) and sumorea e-mail address will be created using
- (short) tenant
- first name
- last name
Login to Cobundu (Studio, Go, touchpoints) is possible via either
- UID
- sumorea e-mail address
- e-mail address
Upload of multiple users at once (batch upload) is possible using the import-functionality. Check import_cobundu_users.xls as example:
- all fields are mandatory (incl default password to start with)
- document may not contain hyperlinks (so better to set e-mail address as text)
Automatic creation of Cobundu users
Initially designed as SSO (Single Sign-On) for Cobundu, the set-up of Cobundu SSO has the hidden advantage that for every (new) Cobundu user signing in, upon first login, Cobundu creates an account on-the-fly and the user can start using the system.
Prerequisites for Automatic creation of Cobundu users:
- MCS account for user must exist
- Ideally, an HR interface takes care of automatic creation of MCS users
- In case the logged in user doesn’t exist in MCS, the user will not be able to use any MCS-dependant features like making reservations.
- Cobundu SSO (receiving following attributes from the identity provider: "MCS login ID", "First Name", "Last Name" and "E-Mail“)
- In case the “MCS login ID” attribute is not correctly mapped, the user will not be able to use any MCS-dependant features like making reservations.
