App managers and realm admins add users to their account. This article explains how to add users to the account, and how an external user should log in to an application.
There are different ways to add a user to your realm including:
- You can actively add users to your account, via the Users page in the Admin Console.
Note: The Add users button is only available to realm admins. -

Allow app managers to add users
App managers may also add users to the account by adding sharing apps with them.
Note: The Add users button is only available to realm admins.
See Sharing apps with other users.
When app managers share apps with new users, the new users will be added to the Users page in the Admin Console.
Restrict how new users are created and what apps they can access
Account admins can restrict app admins from sharing apps with new users by activating the Control new users security policy. Learn more in the Security policies help article.
App admins may also turn on an additional Realm Approval setting that prevents app admins from sharing apps with new users.
- If this setting is turned on, app admins may still invite new users to their apps.
- New users will be added to the account (and visible on the Users page in the Admin Console), but they will not be able to view the apps they have been invited to.
