To get detailed information about a user, click on the user's name in the Users table. This opens the user detail view, where you'll find the following options.

User information |
In Analytics you can configure Acrolinx to display a custom information form when users sign in. Under User information, you can view and change custom fields you set in Analytics for the selected user. Adjust the settings with the dropdown fields in the General tab or directly in the table. |
License type |
Here you can select the license type with the radio buttons Named and Concurrent or change the license status. Before you take any action, you might want to read License Types. |
Here you can edit the roles of a user. You’ll know exactly what's included in a role because all available roles are listed with their privileges.
Notice
To make any changes to the assigned roles, you need the privilege to edit the Users section.
To assign a role, do the following:
-
Go to Settings > Users.
-
Click on the specific user that you want to assign roles to.
-
Navigate to the ROLES tab.
-
On the right, you'll see all available roles. Select one more more roles.
To unassign a role, do the following:
-
Go to Settings > Users.
-
Click on the specific user that you want to unassign roles from.
-
Navigate to the ROLES tab.
-
On the left, you'll see the currently assigned roles. Deselect the desired role or roles.
Notice
A user needs to have at least one assigned role.
In this tab, you can see when the user was added and the last time they accessed an integration. Usage Information also displays the checking frequency.
This tab is only available for super administrators.
Acrolinx super administrators can create API tokens for the users they manage via the Acrolinx Dashboard. API tokens let you check content without having to interact with a browser or other software. This is useful if you want Acrolinx to run regular automated checks on your content.
Note
You can't create API tokens for the built-in admin user.
To create an API token for an Acrolinx user account, follow these steps:
-
Go to Settings > Users.
-
Select the user you want to create an API token for. This will open the user details page.
-
Navigate to the API TOKEN tab, and click CREATE AN API TOKEN.
Note
As soon as you generate an API token, save it somewhere secure (like in a password manager) so that you can access it again. Once you leave the user details page, the API token will disappear from the display.
Acrolinx API tokens are valid for 4 years, even if a user's password changes in the meantime. Each user can only have one active API token. When you generate a new API token for a user, the existing token will become invalid.
