Creating and editing user IDs with the Version Cue Workspace Administration utility


    You don't need to create and assign Version Cue user IDs to let other Creative Suite or WebDAV users access your Version Cue projects and workspace. The users simply need to be either on your subnetwork or given the Version Cue workspace IP or DNS address and port number to access the workspace. Once a user accesses the Version Cue workspace without using a Version Cue login ID, the login ID for the user's own computer is automatically added to the list of users in the Version Cue workspace, and the password is left blank.

    When you want to restrict the Version Cue projects that someone can access, you can edit the project's existing user IDs and create new Version Cue user IDs and assign them to specific projects. All users with a Version Cue login ID and password (except those with privileges set to None) can log into the Version Cue Workspace Administration utility--the tasks they can perform are limited to the privileges assigned to their ID.

    Note: Only users who have system administrator privileges can create new user IDs.

To create new Version Cue user IDs:

  1. Log into the Version Cue Workspace Administration page using a login ID that has system administrator privileges.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Click Users in the navigation list, and then click New in the content frame.
    • Click Adobe Version Cue Workspace Administration at the top of the page, and then click Add A User.
  3. In the New User content frame, choose the level of access to give the user from the Privileges menu. (For information on the access rights for each option, see Choosing user privileges in the Version Cue Workspace Administration utility.)
  4. Type the user's name in the User Name text box.
  5. Type a unique login ID in the Login text box. The login ID is used in Creative Suite applications, if a project requires it, to log into the Version Cue Workspace Administration and identify the user.
  6. Type a password for the user in the Password text box, and type it again in the Verify Password text box.
  7. If desired, type a phone number, an e-mail address, and comments in the remaining text boxes.
  8. To define the user's project access, choose the user's project privileges next to each project name in the Privileges column. To give the user the same privileges for every project, choose an option from the Set All To menu.
  9. To let a user publish a project to a specified FTP or WebDAV server, select the check box in the Publishing Privilege column next to the project name.
  10. Click Save.

To edit a Version Cue user ID:

  1. Log into the Version Cue Workspace Administration page.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Click Users in the navigation list.
    • Click Adobe Version Cue Workspace Administration at the top of the page, and then click Edit Users.
  3. Click the user name of the user login ID you want to edit.
  4. Edit the user properties.
  5. Note: You can edit the Privileges and Project Privileges options only if you have system administrator privileges.

  6. Click Save.

To duplicate or delete a Version Cue user ID:

  1. Log into the Version Cue Workspace Administration page.
  2. Click Users in the navigation list.
  3. Select the check box next to each user name you want to duplicate or delete. To select all listed user names, select the check box next to the User Name column label.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • Click Duplicate. Edit the user's properties in the Duplicate User content frame and click Save.
    • Click Delete. To confirm the deletion, click Delete in the Delete User content frame.
