Creating Users with Non-Default Admin Credentials

To learn how to change the default credentials of a CDA admin user see: Changing the Credentials of a CDA Admin User

Important! The new user must already exist in the AE.

To Create a User using Non-Default Admin Credentials

  1. Open the ImportExportCLI folder of your installation package (Automic\Release.Manager\Utilities\ImportExportCLI).
  2. Run the Powershell script createUser.ps1 and enter the AdminCredential parameter (short:ac) to change the default internal admin name and password:

    c:\ARA> .\createUser.ps1 -ac

    c:\ARA> .\createUser.ps1 -AdminCredential

    The script prompts you to change the default username and password:

    Admin user-name (admin): (press enter to use the default name: "admin")

    Admin password: **********

    Note: You can also use another admin account instead of the default one:

    c:\ARA> .\createUser.ps1 -ac -sys AUTOMIC/100 -usr 100/NEWADMIN/ADMINISTRATORS ....

    Admin user-name (admin) : 100/ADM/ADMINISTRATORS

    Admin password : **********
