Manage Users
This article provides details helpful for managers and workspace owners on how to Manage Users.
You can only manage users you are in charge of and who belong to the workspaces where you are the owner.
Syskit Point enables you to manage users' activity and permissions in your Microsoft 365 workspaces.
You can add or remove users to groups and set up alerts to notify you when specific users complete certain actions. Reports can also be generated to gain deeper insight into a specific user's access and activity.
This can be useful for situations when a user leaves a specific project and no longer needs access to a workspace or to keep track of a user's activity in order to better optimize what permissions are given. If a user is no longer needed in your workspaces, you'll have a quick overview of all of your workspaces that the user has access to and be able to remove them with one quick click.
Alternatively, let's say there's a new team member joining your ranks, and you're in charge of onboarding them. You can easily add them to your workspaces and assign the required access level. This ensures all your team members can access relevant content and communicate effectively, for example, through your Microsoft Teams.
To manage your users:
In your Syskit Point, click the Users button located on the left side of the screen
This opens the Users page with a list of all users to who you have access as a manager or workspace owner
Here you will be able to Schedule Report or export it as a PDF or Excel file.
