How to give permissions to view a device
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/91ef6bc04cebb62a1ad74f4846fa2124.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
Hello,
I want to give access to a specific device to a specific observium user. This user should not see the other devices that are being monitored by observium. I have created the new user as a normal user (level 1). As expected, when I log into observium this user has access to nothing.
My question: where do I configure what devices that this user should have access to? Or where in the device configuration do I configure what users may access the device?
I apologize if the answer to this question is obvious and I missed it while googling. Thanks in advance,
Tobias

Settings/Gear icon (top right)-->Users-->Edit User.
Pick the user from the list, then you can assign them devices, groups, or ports.

Right hand cog menu -> users -> edit user
Pretty straight forward once you know where it is!
