Add a user
Add users when you want to manually provide individuals with access to Grafana.
When you create a user using this method, you must create their password. The user does not receive a notification by email. To invite a user to Grafana and allow them to create their own password, [invite a user to join an organization]({{< relref "../manage-org-users/invite-user-join-org/" >}}).
When you configure advanced authentication using Oauth, SAML, LDAP, or the Auth proxy, users are created automatically.
Before you begin
- Ensure that you have Grafana server administrator privileges
To add a user:
- Sign in to Grafana as a server administrator.
- Hover your cursor over the Server Admin (shield) icon until a menu appears, and click Users.
- Click New user.
- Complete the fields and click Create user.
When you create a user, the system assigns the user viewer permissions in a default organization, which you can change. You can now [add a user to a second organization]({{< relref "add-remove-user-to-org/" >}}).
Note: If you have [organization administrator]({{< relref "../about-users-and-permissions/#organization-roles" >}}) permissions and not [server administrator]({{< relref "../about-users-and-permissions/#grafana-server-administrators" >}}) permissions, you can still add users by [inviting a user to join an organization]({{< relref "../manage-org-users/invite-user-join-org/" >}}).
