Site administrator can manage all registered users on the site on the Site Users page. The Site Users page allows you to edit user contact information and view group assignments and folder access for each user in the list. To navigate to the page, click Admin -> Site -> Site Users. The Site Users page is shown in the image below.
Project Administrators can view similar information for project users by going to Admin -> Folder -> Project Users. Please see Manage Project Users for further information about project user management by project admins.
To edit user contact information, click the [details] link next to a user on the Site Users page. Users can also manage their own contact information when they are logged in, by clicking on the My Account link that appears in the upper right corner of the screen. See My Account for further details.
To view the groups that a given users belongs to and the permissions they currently have for each project and folder on the site, click the [permissions] link next to the user's name on the Site Users page.
The Preferences button leads you to the User Preferences page. This page lets you set which fields (e.g., First Name and Last Name) are required during the user registration process.
Overview. The ability to inactivate a user allows you to preserve a user identity within your LabKey Server even after site access has been withdrawn from the user.
When a user is deactivated, they can no longer log in and they no longer appear in drop-down lists that contain users. However, records associated with inactive users still display the users' names. This is in contrast to deleted users, who disappear from your LabKey Server. Records associated with deleted users lose display name information; the display name is replaced with a user ID number.
The Site Users and Project Users pages show only active users by default, but inactive users can be shown if desired. Site admins can re-activate users at any time.
User Status. On the Site Users page, the Active column on the far right shows user status. By default, the list of users will include only active users, so all listings in this column will read "true." You can include inactive users in the list by clicking on the [include inactive users] link above the list of users. Inactive users will display a "false" in the Active column.
Deactivate a User. Select the check-box next to a user, click the Deactivate button and select Deactivate in the popup confirmation window.
Re-Activate a User. You must be able to see the user to reactivate him/her, so select the [include inactive users] link above the user list if inactive users are hidden. Now click the box next to the user name, select the [Re-Activate] button below the user list and click Re-Activate in the popup confirmation window.
The History button leads you to a log of user actions. These include the addition of new users, admin impersonations of users, user deletion, user deactivation, and user reactivation.
LabKey Corporation does not provide support for auditing/histories on the free community forums due to the installation-specific nature of this feature. Please contact info@labkey.com for commercial support.
Note the [include inactive users] link circled on the left and the Active column on the circled right. After you click on the link, inactive users will be listed in the table and their rows will read "false" in the Active column.
