User Properties - Editable

The ability to update and remove a user's profile picture is available in FileCloud Server version 18.2 and later.

As a FileCloud administrator, you can see user properties and change them as needed.

To see a user's details and what they have permission to do:

  1. Open a browser and log on to Admin Portal.
  2. From the left navigation panel, click Users.
  3. In the users list, click on the row of the user you want whose details you want to view.
  4. Click the edit icon ().

After you make any changes and save them, the new property will be in effect immediately.

For example, after an administrator increases the storage quota for an account, the increased storage is available to the user as soon as the administrator clicks Save.
