My license allows a certain number of users to access Console. How are users defined?
My license allows a certain number of users to access Console. How are users defined?
Conduktor considers the user as being a distinct entry that’s stored in the users database, regardless of whether they’ve ever logged in/are attached to any existing groups or not. Entries are created in the users database when: the first admin account(s) are created, users are added via basic authentication or users log in via SSO (or are added explicitly to the Conduktor UI prior to their first login via SSO). To manage users, go to Settings > Users.

Conduktor employs a soft limit to ensure that your service is not disrupted in cases where you onboard more users than expected. We understand it can be difficult to plan in advance and ask you get in touch with your customer success team if you exceed your user threshold. Please note this limit is a contractual agreement between Conduktor and your company, and may be subject to auditing from time to time.
