Configuring User Permissions in Identity Endpoint

If you haven’t created users yet, learn how to do so in our guide to Adding Users in UniFi.

Assign Permissions to Users

  1. Navigate to Settings > Admins & Users > Users.
  2. Click on the name of the User you want to configure.
    1. Alternatively, select Manage Groups to apply assignments to entire User Groups. If so, skip to Step 4.
  3. In their User Panel, select Settings.
  4. Check or uncheck the Assignments to modify their permissions for each service (e.g., WiFi, VPN, Access).
  5. Return to the User’s Overview page and click Send Invitation.
    1. Note that if you have enabled Auto-Send Invitations When a User Has an Email in your Identity Endpoint settings, you can skip this step.

Add or Revoke Services

  1. Go to Settings > Admins & Users > Identity Endpoint.
  2. To add a service, enable it under the list of available services. Assign it to Users by following the steps above.
  3. To revoke a service, disable it in the settings. This will remove permissions for all Users associated with the service.
