# Manage users

Browse through this section for quick instructions and tips on how to manage users. This is where you will find most, if not all, answers to questions related to creating and enabling or disabling users, viewing detailed user information, and more.

## Add users to your account

To add new users to your Infobip account:

1. Log in to your Infobip account.
2. In the navigation menu, select the **Profile** icon.
3. Go to **Account settings** → **Users**.

Within the **Users** section, you will find two tabs:

- **Users**: View and manage existing user profiles.
- **Invites**: Track and manage pending user invitations.

You can either **manually create a user profile** or **send an invitation through email**.

### Users [#users-add-users-to-your-account]

In the **Users** tab, you can:

- **Create** a new user
- **Search** for specific users using the search bar
- Apply **filters** to narrow results
- **Export** the user list in CSV format
- View key information, including:
  - **Name**
  - **Username**
  - **Email**
  - **Roles**
  - **Last login**
  - **Status**

Use the **three-dot menu** next to each user to edit their profile or to **enable or disable their account**, depending on their current status. When a user is disabled, they will no longer be able to log in or receive notifications. However, their profile will remain in the user list and will be marked as disabled. You cannot disable your own account while logged in.

Who can enable or disable a user  
Primarily, users with the **Account admin** role can perform this action. However, it can also be allowed for **custom roles** that have the users/manage permission enabled.

Read more about adding and editing a user below.

### Add a new user [#add-a-new-user-add-users-to-your-account]

### Edit a user [#edit-a-user-add-users-to-your-account]

#### Details

In the **Details** tab, you can view and update the user’s basic information:

#### Access controls

In the **Access controls** tab, you can configure additional security settings, including IP safelisting, mobile authentication, two-factor authentication (2FA), and API access permissions.

For detailed guidance on each option, refer to the relevant sections below.

### Select a language [#select-a-language-add-users-to-your-account]

Adapt the web interface to a specific language by selecting it from the **Language** dropdown under the **User information** section.

Currently, we offer full support for the following languages:

- Albanian
- Arabic
- Bosnian
- Chinese (Simplified - China)
- Chinese (Traditional - Taiwan)
- English
- French
- German
- Greek
- Italian

You can specify a separate language for all other users that you manage. Once they log in, they will see the UI in the language you have specified for them. If you have [assigned a role](https://www.infobip.com/docs/manage-roles) of an **Account admin** to your users, they can select other language options. Otherwise, your language selection will appear on their web interface as a read only field.

### Invites [#invites-add-users-to-your-account]

To invite **new users via email**:

1. Select the **Invites** tab.
2. Select the **Add user** button → **Invite by email**.

   3. Skip this step if access control is not needed.
6. After filling in all required information, select **Invite User** to complete the process.

Once submitted, the user will receive an email with instructions to join and complete their profile.

## Unlock a user

When the user gets locked after several unsuccessful attempts to log in to their account, the Account admin (user role) can go to the Infobip web interface and help them out. Account admin will check the last login and account information in **Users**, and, if they decide to do so, unlock the user.

After the account admin does their part, the user will receive an email with instructions on how to reset the password.

## IP safelisting

[IP safelisting](https://www.infobip.com/docs/essentials/api-essentials/ip-address-safelist) allows the creation of trusted lists containing specific IP addresses or ranges. These authorized IPs enable human users or APIs to access the Infobip platform securely.

Depending on the assigned role, you will have the following options:

1. If you **have** the Account admin role, you can:
   - View and edit your IP safelisting, and add your IP address before you save the changes.
   - View and edit the IP safelisting from other users without the need to add your IP address before saving the changes.
2. If you do **not have** the Account admin role, you can:
   - Only view the IP addresses that are safelisted for your user.

To add, edit, or remove IP addresses or ranges that are allowed to access our services:

1. Log into your account, and go to **User profile** → **Access controls** → **IP safelisting**.
2. When you click the arrow to expand the menu, you will have the option to view and add your current IP address to the list of allowed IP addresses to prevent any potential lockouts by clicking the **Add Current IP Address** button. If your current IP address is already on the safelist, the button will be disabled.
3. Below this, you can add the wanted IP addresses that will be allowed to access our services. If the IP addresses list is empty, it means that all IP addresses are allowed to access our services.
4. After you add all wanted IP addresses, select the **Save** button.

Once enabled, the IP safelisting is applied to all services - HTTP API, SMPP API, and web interface access.

## Mobile authentication

The **Mobile authentication** option lets you register mobile devices for secure access to your account.

Currently, this option is **supported only in the Conversations mobile app**.

For details, see [Mobile authentication](https://www.infobip.com/docs/conversations/get-to-know-conversations#mobile-authentication-conversations-mobile-app).

## Channel selection for 2FA

To select your preferred [two-factor authentication (2FA)](https://www.infobip.com/blog/what-is-2fa-everything-you-need-to-know) channel, follow these steps:

1. Go to **User profile** → **Access controls** → **Channel selection for 2FA**.
2. You can choose between three different channels:
   1. **Email**
   2. **SMS**
   3. **Voice**
3. Once you choose the preferred channel, click **Save**.

The preferred channel selection will be used to deliver a 2FA PIN when you are logging to your Infobip account from a new device. Additionally, you can switch to failover channels if your preferred method fails.

Note  
Channels available for selection will depend on your account type, region and verified personal information.

## API access

The **API access control** prohibits the use of [basic authentication](https://www.infobip.com/docs/essentials/api-essentials/api-authentication#basic) as a security measure. Instead, you can select between two protocols for accessing the platform securely:

- **SMPP access**
- **HTTP access**

To access it:

1. Go to **User profile** → **Access controls** → **API access**.
2. From there, enable one or both protocols. These protocols determine how authentication is handled when a user attempts to log in using basic credentials.

Note  
Only **account admins** can enable basic authentication for their users on the Infobip account or over API.

You still have the option to utilize alternative authentication methods, such as generating an API key or an IBSSO token, based on your preference. For further details regarding authentication methods, refer to the [API authentication](https://www.infobip.com/docs/essentials/api-essentials/api-authentication) page.
