Database user management

NebulaGraph Explorer supports managing the users in the NebulaGraph database, including creating users, deleting users, changing passwords, etc.

Prerequisites

The user who logs in to Explorer must have permissions for related operations. For example, users with God permission can perform all operations, and users with Admin permission can authorize the permission of a graph space within their permission to other users. For details about role privileges, see Roles and privileges.

At the top navigation bar, click db_user_management .
