Administrator Rights

You may have any number of Server Administrators and Project Administrators on a server.

The original Server Administrator is defined during the BIM Server Configuration process.

When you add users using BIM Server Manager (Users page), you are able to define each new user as a Server Administrator, a Project Administrator, or neither, using the checkboxes in the User Settings dialog box.

To open User Settings, select the user name from the Users page of BIM Server Manager and click Settings.

Note: The Server Administrator’s rights encompass all Project Administrator rights, so if you check the first box, the second is automatically checked, too.)
