Loading Scout users

To load a user into scout use the command scout load user. A user has to:

  • belong to an institute
  • have a name
  • have a email adress

An example could look like:

scout load user --institute-id cust000 --user-name "Clark Kent" --user-mail clark@mail.com

See scout load user --help or the user guide user section for more information.

Managing users from the web interface

Since Scout v4.104, it is also possible for an admin user to add, edit, or remove users directly from the general Users page in the web interface.

⚠️ Note: This page is accessible via the global users page, accessible from the top-left dropdown menu on the top bar and the top level institutes overview sidebar menu. Do not confuse it with the Users link on the institute level sidebar menu, which only lists users for a specific institute.
