Adding or Removing Users
How to add, deactivate, or remove a user from your organization
Updated this week

Your Verkada Command software license includes unlimited users. With an Organization Admin account, you can invite users to your organization's Command account and control their access. Once invited, your user(s) will receive an automatic email inviting them to create their account and set a password.

Note: If you or your users don't receive the invite email as expected, be sure to check your SPAM folder, as some email filters may prevent it from reaching your inbox.

Inviting a User to Your Organization

Process

  1. Select Admin from the All Products menu in the top left-hand corner

  2. Select Users under Org Settings

  3. Select +Add User on the top right hand side

  4. Enter the user's first name, last name, and email address

  5. Optional: Add the user to a group or make them an Organization Admin

  6. Once the user is added, select + Assign Roles to grant users permissions

    Note: Once roles are assigned you will only see the sites the user has permissions for. You will need to select Manage Roles to view/edit sites the user does not have current permissions for.

  7. You can also set access control roles, alarm codes, and user groups by using the corresponding menus on the left-hand side

You're done! Your user(s) will receive an email inviting them to your organization's Command account with the role permissions you've just defined.
