Manage Users

After logging in to the ECP platform with the superuser account, system admins can perform user management-related tasks such as creating users and resetting passwords, login authentication, access control authorization, and monitoring user access and activities for platform stability and security.

In the System Management interface, navigate to the User menu on the left to access the user list. Here, system admins can view user details such as username, system role, email, phone number, last login time, and account activation status. You can also perform fuzzy searches based on username, email, organization, and role.

ECP supports creating users or inviting users by their emails.
