Internal users
Users with a username and password. You can log into the project room and, depending on the respective role and rights concept, have access to the data stored in the project room.
The creation of the internal user, as well as the administration of the viewing and sending rights is carried out by the customer administrator or our Thinkproject support.
In the contacts module, internal users are identified by person symbol (normal user) or a red person symbol (administrator).
External participants
Users (via email addresses) who communicate with the project room. They have no username and password. External users can only access individual project documents via a download link that have been sent to them from the project room.
If an internal user addresses an email address that is not stored in the project room, the system automatically saves this email address as an external user. However, every internal user can also proactively create external users in the Contacts module.
External users are marked with a star * after their name / email address. In the contacts area, they do not have a person figure in front of their name.
In order to create a new user, we are in the project room in the Contacts module. Basically, there are three steps to be followed to create a new user.
- Creation of a user in the global user management (GUM) by the customer administrator
https://accounts.thinkproject.com/sso/admin
or
Self-registration of the participant via our tp registration form
https://welcome.thinkproject.com/de/portal/#/sign-up
- Create the reg. Company in the project room (if not already available).
- Transfer the users from the GUM to the project room.
The exact procedure for the individual steps can be found in the articles Steps 1 - 3 for user creation.
