User Management


The User Management page is a place where admins can invite, remove, and edit users. If you are not a site or network admin, you can find a list of your admins on the User Settings page. Parse.ly employees cannot grant access to accounts without an admin’s express approval.

Note

It’s easier to add new users or modify existing users by first visiting your Network rollup.
