Roles in Zoho Analytics

Server administrators can manage the application by configuring email settings, proxy settings, etc. To learn more about the various application settings, click here. 

Manager

Users with the Manager role can create their own workspaces, be added as administrators to other workspaces and have read/write access to views shared to them. 

Additionally, Zoho Analytics administrators can delegate permissions to perform admin level changes such as adding or editing users, managing licenses, etc.

Viewer

Enabling Single Sign-on for existing users

Zoho Analytics supports single sign-on functionality to allow users to access Zoho Analytics seamlessly, without having to provide login credentials. 

There are two options to enable single sign-on for users:

  1. Single sign-on via SAML authentication : This option works best when you wish to use one of your in-house applications as an authentication provider. If users are already logged in to the application that is acting as the authentication provider, they will be logged in to Zoho Analytics automatically. 

  2. Single sign-on via Active Directory : This option is exclusive to users imported into Zoho Analytics via Active Directory. 

Once a single sign-on configuration is set up, single sign-on can be enabled for existing users easily. 

To enable/disable single sign-on for users who use local authentication:

  • Navigate to the SAML Configuration tab of the User Management page. 

  • Click the Edit SAML Configuration icon that appears on mouse over the required SAML configuration.

  • To enable single sign-on, select the users from the Available Users list and move them to the Single Sign-on Users list.

  • To disable single sign-on, select the required users from the Single Sign-on Users list and move them to the Available Users list.

  • Click Save Configuration to save the changes. 

Click here to learn more.

To enable/disable single sign-on for Active Directory users:

  • If single sign-on is configured for a particular Active Directory domain, the single sign-on functionality is automatically enabled for all Active Directory users associated to that domain. 

  • To disable single sign-on for Active Directory users, navigate to the Active Directory SSO tab of the Users and click the Disable SSO Configuration button that appears on mouse over the configuration.

Activating, deactivating and deleting existing users

In the Users tab of the User Management page, hover your mouse over the user's details and click the Delete , Activate or Deactivate User icons to perform the respective actions. To delete multiple users, search for and select the users, and click the Delete button.

Note:

  • Mail server configuration is mandatory to add new users or share views in Zoho Analytics.

  • Sharing a view to a new user will automatically create a user account. User login credentials will be sent via email.
