Domain roles and domain groups
When you create a new domain, only a locked
Admin
group is created automatically. Any newly created users or users invited to join an organization belong to the domain root folder.
NOTE:
The
Admin
group has full permissions on all resources of the domain.As a locked group, the
Admin
group has several restrictions:
- You cannot move a locked group from a root folder.
- You cannot modify the locked group permissions.
- You cannot edit the locked group name.
- No other groups can share the locked group name.
- You cannot add users to a locked group or remove them from it. You can do so in FactoryTalk Hub, and the modification is automatically mirrored in FactoryTalk Remote Access Manager.

Time-limited users accounts
For each user account, you can set an
Expiration date
to determine the account deactivation date. Every connection attempt with the expired account will be rejected once the expiration date has passed. The account will not be deleted and its password will not be invalidated, however, the account will not be accessible until the account is reactivated.Only users with
Admin
or Manage User Accounts
permissions can set or modify the Expiration date
of a user account.Provide Feedback
