# Authorisation

After authentication allowing to access our service at all, an user have several user rights of usage in the system. These rights are being given to the groups the user was in at authentication time.

An user will be added to our database automatically after her first successfull login (usually using her AD user/pass). Then, you can add certificate credential strings (called devices) to authenticate with.

# Service Users

For several of our services you might want special users / groups.

Examples:

  • Export of measure date via MDA-API
  • Service user to generate TISGraph images via TISGraph-API
  • Our monitoring can be configured to be no-authentication-needed, but clients may be more comfortable with a special service user to authenticate/authorize.

WARNING

These service users may need all rights for all the data of all measure points in your tree and our system may not differentiate.
