In the KUMA web interface, open Settings → Access → Users.
Select the relevant user and change the necessary settings in the user details area that opens on the right.
If you want to change your own user account, you can also click on the name of the user account in the lower-left corner of the window to open a menu and click the Profile button in the menu.
Active (default) makes a user account active. Only users with an Active account can log in to the KUMA web interface. An account status can also change to Inactiveautomatically, for example, when the maximum number of login attempts to the web interface of the application is exceeded.
Name (required)—edit the user name. The length of the string must be 1 to 128 Unicode characters.
Login(required) – enter a unique user name for the user account. Must contain from 3 to 64 characters (only a–z, A–Z, 0–9, . \ - _).
Email (required)—enter the unique email address of the user. Must be a valid email address.
Receive email notifications—select this check box if you want the user to receive SMTP notifications from KUMA.
Display non-printable characters—select this check box if you want the KUMA web interface to display non-printing characters such as spaces, tab characters, and line breaks. If the Display non-printable characters check box is selected, you can press Ctrl/Command+* to enable and disable the display of non-printing characters.
Spaces and tab characters are displayed in all input fields (except Description), in normalizers, correlation rules, filters and connectors, and in SQL queries for searching events in the Events section. Spaces are displayed as dots. A tab character is displayed as a dash in normalizers, correlation rules, filters and connectors. In other fields, a tab character is displayed as one or two dots.
Line break characters are displayed in all input fields that support multi-line input, such as the event search field.
Under Access, use the Add role buttons to assign roles to the user in specific tenants. A user can be assigned different roles in different tenants; multiple roles can be assigned within the same tenant. For a domain user, the ability to change the main role (General administrator, Tenant administrator, Tier 2 analyst, Tier 1 analyst, Junior analyst) is blocked in the user card, while additional roles can be added or removed (Access to CII, Interaction with NCIRCC, Access to shared resources), including management of additional role assignment to tenants.
In the Space sets drop-down list, select check boxes next to one or more space sets to which you want to grant access. If the user does not have a space set selected, access is granted to the default space set.
If you need to change the password, click the Change password button and fill in the fields described below in the opened window. When finished, click OK.
Current password (required)—enter the current password of your user account. The field is available if you change your account password.
New password (required) lets you set a password manually or generate one with the Generate password button. Password requirements:
At least one of the following special characters: !, @, #, %, ^, &, *
No more than two identical characters in a row.
The password does not contain the login.
Confirm password (required)—enter the password again for confirmation.
If the User must change password on next login check box is selected, the next time the user attempts to log in to the KUMA web interface, the user must specify the old password and set a new password. After that, the user is allowed to log in to the KUMA web interface with the new password.
This setting is available only for Active accounts.
If necessary, use the Generate token button to generate an API token. Clicking this button displays the token creation window.
If necessary, enable the TV mode only setting. If this toggle switch is enabled, the user has access only to the Dashboard in TV mode. We recommend enabling this setting for a service account.
