User Management

You can use TIBCO Enterprise Administrator to manage users, groups, roles, permissions, and realms. TIBCO Enterprise Administrator can only manage the roles and permissions exposed by the agent. You cannot add new permissions other than those provided by the agent.

  • Users
    Users are entities that need access to the system. Each user might need a different level of access to the system.
  • Groups
    Groups are logical groupings of the users within an organization. A user can belong to multiple groups and a group can contain multiple users.
  • Roles
    Role is a mechanism to grant or revoke access to users. A Role is a collection of privileges and are assigned to users and groups. All the privileges in a role get associated to the user or group to which it is assigned.
  • Permissions
    A string on the basis of which access control is enforced. The agent decides the granularity of the permissions that it provides.
  • Realms
    A security realm comprises mechanisms for protecting TIBCO Enterprise Administrator resources. It contains users, groups, and their security credentials. Information about users and the groups they belong to, is provided by a realm.
