Invite and Manage Users

User accounts overview

For your users to get access to Armory CD-as-a-Service, you must invite them to your organization. This grants them access to the Armory CD-as-a-Service UI. Depending on their permissions, they may have access to different parts of the UI.

Before you begin

1. You have read the Identity and Access Management Overview, which explains the relationship between organizations, tenants, and users.
2. You need to create at least one role or your user won’t be able to access CD-as-a-Service. See Create and Manage RBAC Roles.
3. You need the user’s name and email address. Note that the email domain must match your organization’s format. For example, users that work for Acme (which uses username@acme.com) must have @acme.com email addresses. Users are automatically added to your organization once they accept the invite and complete the sign up.
