Add a user account in your USM Anywhere environment for each member of your team that needs access. USM Anywhere implements <Tooltip tip="Describes authentication and authorization scheme in which access to functionality is based on the privileges or permissions associated with the group or role a user is a member of.">role-based access control (RBAC)</Tooltip>. See [Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) in USM Anywhere](/documentation/usm-anywhere/user-guide/user-management/rbac) for more information.

3. Enter the user's **Email** address and **Full Name**.

   This is the email address used to verify the account and set the initial password.

4. Select the <Tooltip tip="Tasks and responsibilities based on job description and position within an organization. A user's role is often used to define access to functionality and privileges to perform specific tasks and operations.">role</Tooltip> you want to assign to the user. See [Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) in USM Anywhere](/documentation/usm-anywhere/user-guide/user-management/rbac) for more information.

5. Select the **Status** you want for the user.

   Typically, you should keep the default **Enabled** status for a new user account.

6. Click **Save**.

   USM Anywhere sends an email to the email address that includes a link to set a password and <Tooltip tip="Log in (verb): Process in which an individual gains access to a computer system after providing sufficient credentials to authenticate their unique identity. Login (noun): User credentials, typically a username and matching password.">login</Tooltip>.

   The password reset link will be valid for the next 24 hours. If you do not click the reset link within that period of time, USM Anywhere will display a message:
