/ How to add Ansys Gateway User

There are two types of setup methods for Ansys Gateway, and the method for adding users differs depending on the setup method.

Setup Method 1: Express setup

l  Tenant Administrator: Ansys ID used for Express setup become Tenant Admin user.

-          There is currently no feature to change or add Tenant admin user, but it will be implemented in the future.

l  Tenant User: When Ansys users with same domain sign-in to Gateway, Gateway user is created on-demand. However, these users still need to be added to a project space, which is the same behavior as now.

l  Common to Tenant Administrator/Tenant User:

1. Add AD user to security group(Tenant_Admins,Tenant_users)
2. Add the Ansys ID email address to the user's Mail Property
3. Wait for Sync for about 30 minutes
