1 Overview

The invite user icon is found on the users page in the right hand corner of the Veloopti console.

Inviting a user to your organisation lets other people participate with the monitoring of your IT infrastructure. You can grant them granular permissions which can allows them to do things like viewing the events and dashboards that shows the status of your applications and IT infrastructure all the way to letting them partake in the configuring of the monitoring.

This is done using the invite user icon Icon user add.png that is found in the global options on the users page. Clicking on this icon will open the invite user dialogue box. Completing the user invitation will send an email to the user letting them know that you have granted that email address access to your organisation.
