The following topics help you understand user management, how to access it, how to create and manage roles, and how to map roles and share Portworx Backup resources with users and groups.

Here is the order of tasks to perform in the user management module of Portworx Backup:

• Integrate authorization providers in Keycloak
• Create local users and groups in Keycloak
• Create roles in Portworx Backup web console
• Map roles in Portworx Backup web console to the:
  • Users

The Create local users and groups in Keycloak step is only required if you are managing users locally in Keycloak.
