# Teams Config The Teams Config feature is designed for Reporting Managers, providing them with controlled access based on specific conditions to perform various actions for their team members. Based on different conditions like Country, Department, Designation, Login Pattern and UserType, multiple such configurations can be created in different combinations and different sets of permissions. ### Permissions Overview Administrators can grant the following permissions to Reporting Managers, providing a granular and secure way to delegate administrative tasks: * Archived User Permissions * Archived User: Allows the manager to view archived users from their team. * Suspend User Permissions * Suspend User View: Enables the manager to view suspended users from their team. * Suspend User Resume: Allows the manager to resume suspended users from their team. * Suspend User Delete: Permits the manager to delete suspended users from their team. * User Permissions * Create User: Enables the manager to create new users. * Update User: Allows the manager to update user information. * User Info: (Enabled By Default) Provides access to view detailed user information. * User Application View: Allows the manager to view applications assigned to team members. * Assign Application: Permits the manager to assign applications to team members. * Assign Role: Enables the manager to assign roles to team members. * Unassign Application: Allows the manager to unassign applications from team members. * Unassign Role: Permits the manager to unassign roles from team members. * Menu Action: Grants access to context menu actions. * Assign Group: Enables the manager to assign user groups. * Unassign Group: Permits the manager to unassign user groups.
Manager Application This feature operates on a principle of delegated but restricted access. When the Manager Application setting is enabled, the system establishes a direct link between the manager's own application entitlements and their delegation rights. Manager's Assignment Scope: A manager can only assign applications to their direct reports if they are already assigned that same application. This ensures that managers can only provision access to resources for which they have a demonstrated need and an established level of authority. User's Request Scope: Correspondingly, users under that manager's supervision can only submit access requests for applications that their manager is entitled to. This creates a streamlined, policy-driven workflow where a user's requests are automatically filtered to match their manager's permissions. This enhancement significantly improves security by preventing unauthorized or out-of-policy application assignments. It reinforces the principle of least privilege and ensures that all access delegation is conducted within a controlled and logical framework. #### 4.

Cymmetri offers advanced settings for user creation and updates, providing administrators with fine-grained control over the onboarding process. **Create User Advanced Settings** This feature allows for extensive customization of the user registration process, which can be enabled or disabled via a simple toggle. The key configuration options include:
Activation Method: The administrator can choose how a new user receives their initial credentials: 1. Generate Activation Link: An activation link is sent to the user's email.
2. Generate Password: A system-generated password is created and provided to the user.
User Threshold: This setting defines the maximum number of new users that can be registered in a single batch.
Pre-Registration Hook: A script that executes before user registration is completed. This is useful for tasks such as data validation, modifying user attributes, or enforcing custom business rules.
Post-Registration Hook: A script that runs after user registration is successfully completed. This can trigger follow-up actions like sending a welcome email, logging details, or syncing with other systems.
User Registration Fields: Administrators can define and map the fields captured during the registration process.
This is managed through a table with the following columns: * Field Label: The display name on the registration form. * Field Name: The internal key for the field. * Cymmetri Field: The Cymmetri user attribute it maps to. * Required: Marks the field as mandatory. * Regex: Allows for validation of input using regular expressions. * Actions: Options to edit or delete the field.
