# Managing Uplink Users

## Managing Uplink Users

You must be an Uplink super user to add and manage users.

- [Creating Users](/develop/docs/managing-uplink-users#creating-users)
- [Modifying Users](/develop/docs/managing-uplink-users#modifying-users)
- [Deleting Users](/develop/docs/managing-uplink-users#deleting-users)
- [Resetting User Passwords](/develop/docs/managing-uplink-users#resetting-user-passwords)

### Creating Users

1. Browse to your Uplink portal (*<subdomain>.cloud.vastdata.com*).
2. Log in using your super user's email and password.
3. In the Uplink portal, select the Users tab.

A list of users appears.
4. Click + Create User.
5. In the fields provided, enter the name of the new user and the user's email address.
6. If the new user must be a super user, enable Superuser.

A super user can manage other users for the subdomain and [register clusters](/develop/docs/registering-for-uplink-and-connecting-clusters#registering-clusters-with-uplink) to report to Uplink.

### Modifying Users

1. Browse to your Uplink portal (*<subdomain>.cloud.vastdata.com*).
2. Log in using your super user's email and password.
3. In the Uplink portal, select the Users tab.

A list of users appears.
4. Right-click the user you want to modify, and select Update user.
5. In the Update user dialog, edit the user's name or enable the Superuser setting.

A super user can manage other users for the subdomain and [register clusters](/develop/docs/registering-for-uplink-and-connecting-clusters#registering-clusters-with-uplink) to report to Uplink.
6. Click Update to save the changes.

### Deleting Users

1. In the Uplink portal screen, select the Users tab.

A list of users appears.
2. Right-click the user you want to delete, and select Remove.
3. Click Yes to confirm the deletion.

The user is removed.

### Resetting User Passwords

To reset your password, use the Forgot Password option in the login screen. You can also request a password reset from a super user. If you are locked out of your account, only VAST Data [Support](https://support.vastdata.com/s/contact-us) can unlock your account for you.
