Accounts
The account is a legal entity associated with services and payments. It supports an unlimited number of users, each with specific roles and access levels.
Managing user roles is essential for defining access levels within the account. The following are common user roles:
-
Owners - have full access to the account with user management capabilities
-
Managers - oversee operations without user management capabilities
Depending on the roles, users can manage the following options:
-
Secure the account with two-factor authentication and with SSH keys
-
Create contacts
-
Create API tokens for using the Public API
-
Interact with technical support by creating support tickets and managing access for the support team to the account
