Users and access

Profinity controls access with user accounts, and each account holds roles that decide what the person can see and do. User accounts and roles need the Server licence. To create your first user, refer to Create a user.

• Managing users: create user accounts, give each person the roles they need, and find their password and two-factor settings.
• Create a role: create a role, give it to a person, and choose which roles your site needs.
• Roles and permissions: see every permission and find the one a person is missing.
• Service accounts: create accounts with API tokens that never expire, for automation and Model Context Protocol (MCP) clients.
• MFA account management: reset a user's multi-factor authentication or password, and manage your own authenticator.
• Component and collection security: how restricting profile components and tag collections works.
• Restrict a component or collection: limit which roles can see a component or a tag collection.
