This page is for PhixFlow administrators to set up default options that external users will have when they access PhixFlow. For related information, see the PhixFlow User Administration topic.
Overview
If your PhixFlow instance is integrated with a system-wide authentication system, you may have users who can log into PhixFlow without having their own user account. These users are known as external users; see Configure Groups for External Login.
When they log in, PhixFlow needs to know what privileges to give external users. Use external user templates to set defaults for the groups to which the external user belongs, and therefore the privileges they have.
When an external user logs in
...
, PhixFlow will match them with an external user template. This will determine the default settings for locale, the application that opens and whether or not PhixFlow opens in Design Mode. The user's external groups will be matched against the External Groups on each External User Template in order and the first match template will be used. If no templates are matched then the last one will be used.
