There are two user types in Kapiche which have their own respective process when it comes to inviting them to your site, which we'll cover off for you below:
Creator User
Creator Users have complete access to all of the different areas of Kapiche and require a paid Creator license (your annual subscription usually includes a set amount of licences that can be allocated).
Explorer User (aka Dashboard User)
Explorer users have read-only access to the specific Dashboards that they have been invited to and cannot access the Analytics components of Kapiche (such as Storyboards & Querying).
Adding a Creator user to Kapiche
To maintain top security, we have a three-step authentication process when it comes to adding new Creator users to Kapiche.
Step 1: Invite the user to your Kapiche Site:
Navigate to your Kapiche Site
Click on your profile menu towards the top-right corner of the page
Click 'Users'
Type the email of the person you want to add into the invite box
Click 'Invite'.
Important Note:
Before inviting an Creator user to Kapiche you'll need to confirm that you have an Creator license available on your plan.
Here's how:
Navigate to your Kapiche Site
Click on your 'Profile Menu' towards the top-right corner of the page
Click 'Users'
From there, the number of Creator licenses available will be displayed along the top.
Tip: If you would like to organise an additional Creator license, drop us a message via the blue live chat icon towards the bottom-right corner of any Kapiche screen!
Step 2: Your user will need to activate their account
Your new user will receive an email invitation to activate their Kapiche account - they'll need to follow the instructions in their email in order to complete the registration process.
Step 3: Provide access to your relevant Projects
Once your new user has successfully activated their Kapiche accounts you will then be able to invite them to your relevant Kapiche projects:
Navigate to the Project(s) you would like to your new user to
Scroll down to the 'Project Members' section of the page
Start typing in their email address & then select their email when it appears
Tip: If the user's email address doesn't appear in the list, they likely haven't activated their account yet!
Adding a new Explorer user to Kapiche
To maintain top security, we have a two-step authentication process when it comes to adding new Dashboard users to Kapiche:
Step 1: Generate an invitation via the Dashboard menu:
Navigate to the specific Dashboard you would like to add a new user to
Click on the 'Share' icon towards the top-right corner of the page
Type the email of the person you want to add into the invite box
Hit enter to send an invitation to your new user
Step 2: Your user will need to activate their account
Your new user will receive an email invitation to activate their Kapiche account - they'll need to follow the instructions in their email in order to complete the registration process.
Tip: If your Dashboard users lose the URL for their dashboard, simply click on the Share button on the dashboard and then copy the URL located towards the bottom!
