Users

Users are the individuals who can access resources in your organization.

Users have user attributes, such as location, cost center, or department. You can use these attributes to create attribute-based groups for granting access. When a user’s attribute changes, Oblique automatically updates their membership in attribute-based groups and grants or revokes access accordingly.

When multiple integrations provide the same user information (like title or manager), core attributes determine which source Oblique displays in user profiles.

Add a user

You can’t add users to Oblique directly. Instead, add an integration that imports users from your organization.

Edit user attributes

You can’t edit users or user attributes in Oblique directly. Instead, make changes to users or user attributes in the integration that’s the source of truth for those attributes. Oblique will automatically sync and apply those changes.

Edit core user attributes

You can’t edit core attributes in Oblique directly. You can change the source integration used for core attributes.

By default, Oblique uses the first integration you connect that provides each core attribute.

You must be an admin to edit the source integration for a core attribute.

To change the source integration for a core attribute, navigate to Settings and select Attributes.

1. Under Core attributes, locate the attribute whose source you want to change.
2. Select the current source to open a dropdown menu.
3. Select the new source.

Users’ profiles will update with the new information.

Delete a user

You can’t delete users in Oblique directly. Instead, delete the user from the integration.
