Admin settings

Overview

Admin Settings is a feature for designating and managing Analytics administrators, who are responsible for settings across Analytics, such as organization, workspace, and user management and settings.

When you complete the initial setup to use Analytics, you are granted initial administrator permissions. After that, you can add administrators or remove the permissions of existing administrators.

Note

The menu and the administrator list are available only to Analytics administrators.

What can you do?

Operations managers

  • Designate the person who oversees Analytics operations in your organization as an administrator to clarify the scope of permissions and responsibilities.
  • When the person in charge changes or the organization is restructured, quickly add or replace administrators so that you can manage Analytics without gaps in operation.

  1. Click the account icon in the upper-right corner and select the Admin Settings menu.
  2. Click the Register button in the upper-right corner of the list.
