User Management
Data Protection on Demand Service Provider Administrators and Tenant Administrators can manage any user accounts within their tenant. Service provider administrators can manage other service provider administrators in their tenant. Tenant administrators can manage other tenant administrators or application owner users in their tenant.
Administrators may:
Users can:
- Change your Password
- Reset your Password
- Reset your MFA Token
- Register a Passkey

Add a User
Service Provider Administrators can add and manage additional service provider administrators to assist with managing a service provider tenant. Tenant Administrators can add and manage additional tenant administrators and Application Owners.
To create a new tenant you must be a service provider administrator. See the section Adding a Tenant for more information.
Tip
We recommend users avoid including special characters such as !@#$%^&(), in common fields such as the account name or subscriber group name as these characters can cause errors in the platform.
-
From the Accounts tab under Users select a user tile:
- Service Provider Administrator
- Administrator
- Application Owner
-
Enter the criteria for the user account.
Tip
Application owners must belong to a Subscriber Group. We recommend creating the subscriber group before adding an application owner. Failure to have the subscriber group available will result in the application owner being created in the incorrect environment, or the tenant administrator having to restart the registration process. See the section Subscriber Group Management for further details.
-
Click Add User.

You cannot delete a primary administrator. To delete a primary administrator you must delete the tenant. Only service provider administrators can delete tenants.
