Adding Users

When Ansys Access on Microsoft Azure is set up, tenant administrators can add users via the Administration > Users page using the instructions provided below.

To add users:

  1. On the main toolbar, click to access the Administration page.
  2. In the navigation pane, select Users.
  3. Click Add users.
  4. In the Add users dialog, enter a user's email address. If the user has an Ansys ID, use the email associated with their Ansys ID. Otherwise, use a business email address that they can subsequently use to create an Ansys ID.

    To add another user, select Add another email address.

  5. When you have entered all desired email addresses, click Add users. The users are added to the Users list.

    By default, newly added users have a standard Member role which is suitable for simulation users. To grant a user Admin privileges, see Changing a User's Access Level.

Once users are added, an email notification is automatically sent from cloud-noreply@ansys.com to each newly added user to inform them that they now have access to Ansys Access on Microsoft Azure. The email includes a sign-in link.

Users must sign in to Ansys Access on Microsoft Azure using the email address associated with their Ansys ID. If a user does not have an Ansys ID, they will be prompted to create one when they attempt to sign in to Ansys Access on Microsoft Azure.
