You can grant users or user groups Recast permissions by assigning them a specific role, such as an Administrator role. Your Recast software must be connected to Recast Management Server to set up role-based permissions.
Add an Active Directory User or User Group
To add an AD user or user group:
1. In your Recast Management Server, navigate to Administration > Permissions.
2. Click Add User or Add Group.
3. In the window that opens, search for your AD name or AD user group and click the Add button.
NOTE: You can include a wildcard (*) to facilitate your search.
Wildcard examples:- John Connor returns strings that match exactly
- John C* returns strings beginning with 'John C', such as 'John Connor', 'John Connors', and 'John Cranston'
- *Connor returns strings ending with 'Connor', such as 'John Connor' and 'Carol O'Connor'
- *Support* returns strings that include 'Support' plus whatever is on the left and right, such as 'Customer Support Team' and 'Enterprise Support Group'
Assign a User a Role
Each user must be assigned at least one role. To assign Right Click Tools permissions using a role template, see Custom Role Templates for Right Click Tools.
To assign a user an Administrator's role:
1. On the Permissions page, click the Edit icon to the right of the user.
2. Under Role Assignments, select Administrators.
3. If desired, add a limiting rule that restricts user permissions to a set of devices by enabling Limit this user to specific objects and selecting a Service Connection.
4. Click Save.
NOTE: Beginning with Recast Software Version 5.9.2502.2105, you no longer have to set a Refresh Interval to repopulate your limiting rules (formerly known as scopes). The scheduled Discovery Sync will keep your service connection data up to date.
