The “Associate User” function allows you to add access to a Provisioning Entity to an existing Nebula user in addition to any other Provisioning Entities to which they have access. There are two primary use cases for this function:
1) If someone logs into Nebula using SSO prior to being added by another user, their Nebula account is created but doesn’t have access to any Provisioning Entities. They won’t be seen in the User Management view but attempts to create them as a new user will fail.
The Associate User function allows these users to be associated with one or more Provisioning Entities.
2) If a user has access to a Provisioning Entity but needs to be added to another one, someone with the “users” role in the desired Provisioning Entity can use this function to add them. Note the user will have the same roles in all Provisioning Entities to which they have access.
