Hi, I’m wondering if it’s possible to manage user permissions through Omni’s API. Specifically, I’d like to know if I can:

- Set a new user as an Admin or assign different roles upon joining.
- Adjust permissions (e.g., remove Admin rights) when a user leaves the company.

Any guidance on this functionality or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Amihai  
You can check out the Omni user management APIs here: [User Management (SCIM) | Omni Analytics Documentation](https://docs.omni.co/docs/API/user-management)  
You can use this to create/delete users, and add those users to groups

Liam, thanks for your answer, but I’m missing the functionality to adjust user permissions. Do you have a solution for that?

Adjusting permissions isn’t currently supported through the API - only creating/deleting users and adding them to groups
