Add a user or group

Use the Add User/Group button to add a FactoryTalk security user, a Windows-linked
user, or a Windows-linked group to the current running application. It is not possible to

add a new FactoryTalk Security group to a running application.

To add a FactoryTalk security user

1. Press the Add User/Group button to open the Add User/Group Account dialog box.

When designing the application in FactoryTalk View Studio, you must consider which users and
groups can access this button, and how to control that access.

Newly added FactoryTalk Security users, Windows-linked users, and Windows-linked groups
cannot log in to the system untill the added user, or Windows-linked group is made a member of
an existing FactoryTalk group, which is configured with run-time security code(s) in Runtime
Security.
