Tenants
Every Cloud subscription corresponds to a dedicated Tenant — an isolated environment that owns and manages its own devices, assets, dashboards, rule chains, users, and telemetry, with no access from other tenants. See Multi-Tenancy & Hierarchy for how Tenant, Customer, and User relate.
Tenant Administrator
Section titled Tenant AdministratorYour Cloud subscription account is your tenant’s initial Tenant Administrator — the role with full administrative access to this tenant, scoped entirely to your own resources.
Customers, Users, and Roles in Your Subscription
Section titled Customers, Users, and Roles in Your SubscriptionAs the Tenant Administrator, you can build out your own organizational structure and control who can see and do what:
- Create Customers to isolate data and delegate access to client organizations, regional branches, or internal departments.
- Create Users and assign them to your tenant or to a specific customer.
- Scope access with custom roles and organize users into user groups with group roles for fine-grained, group-level permissions.
Best Practices
Section titled Best PracticesTo keep your Cloud tenant secure and running smoothly:
- Assign at least one additional User to the built-in Tenant Administrators group (see Default User Groups and Roles) for redundancy.
- Monitor your entity and API usage against your subscription plan’s limits to avoid disruptions as you scale.
- Apply consistent White-labeling and a custom domain to keep your tenant on-brand for customers.
- Enable Two-Factor Authentication and review the Audit Log regularly to keep tenant access secure.
- Use consistent naming conventions for your Customers and User Groups.
