Introduction to User Management
The options for managing Users and Teams are visible in the Administration area of Astrato.
There's no need to import users into Astrato. From the sidebar, click Invite Users to add Users or Teams. When your users accept their invitation and log in to Astrato, their account status changes from Pending to Active.
Please note: the User section and the list of users are visible to all user roles; however, the Teams option and the bulk of Administration functions are not.
