Controlling access to projects and sites

To give a user access to all of the resources in a project, including those in all of the project's sites, you add the user to the project. To give a user access to only the resources in a site, add the user to the site. Similarly, to make an asset or sensor available to all of the users who have access to an entire project, add it to the project. To make an asset or sensor available only to a specific site, add it to only that site. Gateways are always accessible to anyone or any sensor in the project.

For example: Olga is an admin user associated with the entire project. As a project-level admin user, she can manage users and resources anywhere within the project, including those within sites A, B, and C. Sam is an admin user associated with Site B. As a site-level admin user, he can manage users and resources within Site B but can't see or manage those within sites A and C. Sensors at Site B can use any gateway within the project.

Similarly, if Ed is a project-level technician, he can monitor any sensor in the project. However, Tom, who is a site-level technician for Site C, can see and monitor only sensors at that site.
