Context
You can create users in Demandbase individually or add users in bulk.
After you create a user, you can change their permission sets, department, or user view. You can also reset the user's password if you're not set up to use Single Sign On (SSO) for log in or delete the user.
Important:
- Demandbase doesn’t delete assets such as lists, filters, and reports created by a user when you delete the user.
- If you delete a user that created activated Automations, Demandbase deactivates them and you must reactivate them manually. See Activate an Automation.
Prerequisites/Preparation
You must have Admin privileges or be assigned to a permission set with the required Demandbase settings access.
