# User Profile

The User Profile is where all the settings for a given User can be configured, such as their User Rights or name.

Your **own profile** can be found by clicking on your profile icon in the top right and selecting ‘Profile’, or **other users** can be found under the Client Profile in the ‘Users’ tab.

Admin accounts will be able to use the ‘Impersonate User’ option in the User Profile page of other Users to **view HIVO from their perspective**. While impersonating a user, any action taken will be from the impersonated User and reloading the browser will return you to your own profile.

### Editing User Rights

Administrators can set the User Rights of **other** Users inside their [User Profile](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/users/user-profile.md) (Client Profile => Users tab), by clicking **Edit User Rights.**

&#x20;In the rights editor you can toggle on/off each User Right and click **SAVE** at the bottom or even at the top right of the page to save your changes.

<figure><img src="https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FdWVaAc97UDK8PsCJFTsp%2Fuser.gif?alt=media&amp;token=058fd4e3-410d-4d58-b288-dd43dbd604d2" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

\
\
Alternatively you could opt to assign User Rights to an entire group. All users inside a Group will inherit the Group's allocated rights, and this can act as a useful way to give a baseline level of access to users.  [See: Groups](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/groups.md) for more details.\
\
Allocating rights on a per-user level should be used for those users that need a specific configuration.&#x20;

[A full list of User Rights can be found here](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/users/list-of-user-rights.md).

<figure><img src="https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FkAUGiQHTQrKM1VC0l8Fj%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=2816f230-568e-40d0-aaf9-10ddda15c187" alt=""><figcaption><p>List of User Rights</p></figcaption></figure>

*NOTE: The number next to each right describes whether the right is Light (1), Regular (2), or Heavy (3).*[ *See: Types of Users*](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/users/types-of-users.md) *for more information.*

### Adding a User

To **add Users** to your existing Client, navigate to the **Users** tab of the **Client Profile** and click the **plus icon** ![](https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FqtmGsUBzW0Sx7j17DbSr%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=c3414fab-d74d-4fc5-bf9d-4c6de61cc0a4) next to the search bar.

<figure><img src="https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FPeypa1T15xNZexP0nuCi%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=bb1d189f-35ee-413c-ba4f-dd1e56d0281e" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Next, click the User to fill out additional details (e.g. email, phone, avatar).&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FkqPH3yxQ7k7kairzUjvc%2Fadd%20user.gif?alt=media&amp;token=d9501237-aea1-43bd-a8a6-88e64d61ba4b" alt=""><figcaption><p>Fill out the infomation of the user</p></figcaption></figure>

On the same page you may send them an invite to allow them to login. [See: Inviting a User](#inviting-a-user).

Note that new users won’t be **Active** (able to login) or have any other Rights by default, so you’ll need to [add them to a Group](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/groups.md) with User Rights.

### Removing a User

To **permanently remove** a User, navigate to **Client Profile** and find the relevant User Profile under the **Users tab**. Click the User to view their profile and under **More** click **Delete User**. This button will only appear if you have the relevant [User Rights](/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/users/list-of-user-rights.md) to remove User Profiles.

<figure><img src="https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2F1ZdAXZH154ynBD150TTS%2Fdelete%20users.gif?alt=media&amp;token=4d4119f5-c960-411a-9932-73fbc7da6986" alt=""><figcaption><p>Delete a user</p></figcaption></figure>

### Deactivate a User

You may alternatively **deactivate** a User rather than permanently delete them. This means the user cannot login to HIVO, and will encounter a screen saying “Your account is awaiting activation”.&#x20;

Navigate to **Client Profile** click the User Profile to view their profile, and click **Edit User Rights.** Untick the **Active** left checkbox and click **Submit** to save changes.&#x20;

You don’t need to untick any of their permissions other than ‘Active’ to deacitivate the user account.

The deactivated user account will appear with the ![](https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FurA44L1XACIeaDPlD5TI%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=48a523ce-3620-40c3-a36e-b7a39bf5f3de) icon next to it.

<figure><img src="https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FiyjQFTzlJeku2CpJ0sa8%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=3858e572-294e-4e00-8a9d-31692d7de536" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Inviting a User

To **invite a user**, navigate to **Client Profile** and click an existing user under **Users**. Under **More**, click the **Invite User via Email** button if you want an email to automatically be sent to the User containing invitation instructions.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://2446612760-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0sjg5GpIPr5HzBTJYqYe%2Fuploads%2FPd9xm9U4ou2WbJ45Ml3w%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=04510974-947d-4859-9577-0c41400521aa" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

You may also click **Generate Invite URL** if you would like to generate a unique URL which can be copied and sent to somebody for activation. The User will be asked to set a password once they receive the invitation.

You may invite a User as many times as you like, and may want to re-invite a User if they didn’t receive the invitation email, or if they forgot their password.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.hivo.co/~/changes/eaCuYFhybbREuBouwZp6/client-profile/users/user-profile.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
