Such users can work in BRIX through the external portal interface. External users may include, for example, partners of your organization who are not part of your staff. They are given limited access to system data and can start business processes, create app items, and perform other permitted actions. To make this possible, you need to add the appropriate buttons and widgets to the portal pages.
To grant external users access to the portal, you need to activate a package of named licenses. To do this, contact the sales rep you worked with when purchasing the system. Once activation is completed, you can track the number of licenses that are available or in use in Administration > License management. Read more about working with user licenses in Licensing.
If all the named licenses for external users are occupied, a new user will not be able to register on the portal.
List of external users
You can find the list of external users in the System apps workspace. Here you can track user statuses, search within app items by parameters, lock a user, and add a new one.
After registration, new users are automatically added to the External users system group. It is convenient to use the group when configuring access permissions to the system’s workspaces and apps or selecting executors in a swimlane. You can also add external users to other groups by using a script. To learn more, see Getting started with users and groups in BRIX TS SDK.
For each user, you can set up their own set up individual access permissions to folders and app items located on the portal. Read more about configuring user access in Access to app data.
