Users

In M-Files Manage, you can control vault access rights. However, user administration on the vault level is done in M-Files Admin, where more detailed rights, user groups, and some other functions are controlled. A default M-Files Admin username that uses M-Files authentication and has full control of the vault has been provided with your vault.

For more general information about users management, refer to the M-Files user guide.

Do not use M-Files to make any changes to user information that is synchronized from Microsoft Entra ID. Changes made to M-Files user accounts will not have any effect in Entra ID. For more information, see Managing User Groups with User Provisioning

Note: The Subscription admin or Access admin role is necessary to manage users in M-Files Manage.

Searching for users

To search for users in M-Files Manage, enter one or more search words to the search bar in the top-right corner of the user interface and press Enter. The search returns all users that contain at least one of the specified search words in the Username, Full name, or Email field.

Add quotation marks to the start and end of the search term to find users that have all the search words in the given order. For example, a search with the search term Matt Bay matches a user whose email is [email protected].
