Overview
The Users Management Menu enables you to manage access to the Radix platform by creating users and assigning roles, permissions, interface languages, and group-level access according to organizational needs. Permissions can be tailored to each user based on their role and the specific functionality they require.
Note! The "user" referred to here is a Radix Device Management Platform user and has no relation to the local device user.
