A user record in the application grants access to a person who uses Marketing Cloud.

As an account administrator,
use the administrative area of the application to ensure that all users are properly configured.

Users Screen

Use this information about user security to help protect the assets in your account and prevent unauthorized access.

 Create one user per person, API process, and third-party system that you integrate with.
 Do not allow users to share usernames and passwords because it increases the likelihood of a compromised
account.
 Give each user the lowest level of access needed to accomplish their tasks in the application.

You can’t delete users, but you can disable them. Disabling a user retains the user’s security record and data. Sends
and automations created by a disabled user continue to run as scheduled in your Marketing Cloud account.

Your Marketing Cloud contract specifies the number of users you can add to your account. Disabled users and users
created as part of an AppExchange app don’t count against this number. Users created manually and configured as
API users do count toward the total number of enabled users.

As an administrator, you can:

 Add users
 Modify user permissions
 Disable users
 Reset passwords

When you add a user or reset a user’s password, the system provides a new temporary password for the user, which
you need to communicate to the user. When the user logs in with that password, they are prompted to create a
password.

Upon first login, Marketing Cloud prompts users to provide an identifying question and answer. If a user forgets the
password, the user can click a link on the login screen and follow prompts to reset the password..

 Add a User

 Modify Marketing Cloud User Settings

 Reset a Marketing Cloud User Password

 Disable a Marketing Cloud User

 Marketing Cloud Account User Permissions

the actions a user must perform as part of their Marketing Cloud account activities.
