Adding and Managing an Administrator
The RUCKUS One account allows you to add users to facilitate the delegation of specific types of management tasks.
Note:
- Trial accounts are limited to one administrator account. If you have a trial account with a TEMP license, you cannot create an additional administrator account.
- An administrator cannot edit or delete their own account.
- If a Privilege Group contains at least one user, its Name cannot be changed.
- Only Administrator and Read‑Only system groups support the Clone operation.
- System‑defined groups cannot be deleted.
- On the navigation bar, select Administration > Account Management > Users & Privileges.
-
Select the
Users sub-tab.
The following information is displayed:
- Name: Displays the name of the user.
- Email: Displays the email address of the user.
- Authentication Type: Displays the authentication type (SSO with 3rd Party or RUCKUS) configured for the user to log in to RUCKUS One. This must be enabled or activated in RUCKUS One.
- Privilege Group: Displays the privilege group with which the user is associated. Privilege groups can be system-defined or custom-defined.
You can use the Search option to display only the table entries matching the specified user Name or Email; enter a minimum of two characters. You can also use the Authentication Type and Privilege Group filters to display only entries matching your selections. You can sort the list of users by attribute; simply click on the desired column header to reorder the list. -

Party or RUCKUS Identity
Management.
Note:
- To use the RUCKUS Identity Management authentication type, a new administrator must be activated on the RUCKUS One account.
- To use the SSO with 3rd Party option, you must first enable the Enable SSO with 3rd Party provider option on the Administration > Account Management > Settings tab. Refer to Configuring SAML SSO with Azure AD for complete instructions.
-
Enter a valid Email address.
Make sure the email address is already registered with RUCKUS One.Note:
- You can associate a single email address with multiple tenants across different brands or MSPs. This allows you, as an MSP administrator, to manage them all.
- You can use the "+" (plus) notation in email addresses (for example, user+admin1@domain.com) to create unique variations for organizational purposes, allowing you to better manage and filter RUCKUS One administrative accounts while still delivering emails to the primary email system (for example, user@domain.com).
- (Optional) Enter the user's First Name.

user's Last
Name.
Note: The system uses the first and last name saved in your RUCKUS One admin profile. If those fields are empty, it will use the name stored in Identity Management.

list.
