Note Only SiteVault users with the Site Administrator system role can complete the tasks on this page.
Viewing Users
You can view users for your site or research organization in the Administration tab, then selecting either Staff or Monitors & External Users. The list of users displayed will filter when you have a Site selected; to see Users across your research organization, select your Research Organization.
To view a single user’s information and study assignments (if available), select the user to open their User record.
Creating Users
When you create a new SiteVault user for your site, you can choose from a set of system roles and, if needed, additional add-on permissions. See the About System Roles and Add-on Permissions page to learn more about what levels of access these roles and permissions provide.
Research Organization Administrator users can add users to one or more sites at a time when the research organization is selected in the vault selector. Site Administrators can only add users to their currently selected site.
For information on creating external users, see Monitor and External User Access.
