Manage Admin User Licenses

1. Introduction​

In addition to the regular licenses being distributed, we also distribute the Admin User License - which grants super admin privileges. They include but not limited to:

  • Controlling user and license assignments.
  • Requesting access for broker research.
  • Configuring SSO setup.
  • Ingesting documents via API.
info

It is recommended to assign this admin license only to users who would have full privileges for configuring your AlphaSense product.

warning

Your SuperAdmin account will lose its access to the platform upon successful SSO (Single Sign-On) setup. It is advised to grant this Admin User License to your admin users in advance to preserve their access to the system.
