Account Management
In the Vahana cloud, you can use the Account Management module to manage your account, create and manage workspaces under your account, invite new members to your workspace, and access multiple resources, such as apps, APIs, rules, data models, etc. When you access the Account Management module, it displays two sub-modules. These sub-modules are as follows:
Sub-module | Description |
Accounts | When you access the Accounts sub-module, you can perform the following functions: 1. Editing and Viewing Account Details: When you access the Accounts sub-module, it displays your account’s details. In the account’s details, you can only edit the account’s name.When you successfully register with the Vahana cloud, it automatically creates your default account (for example, KumarTSX). In the default account, the Vahana cloud creates a default workspace. After successful registration with the Vahana cloud, when you access the Vahana portal, you access it in your default workspace. 1. Creating a New Workspace: The term workspace, specifies the virtual workspace on the Vahana cloud. In the account, you can treat a workspace as a unique virtual space. In a workspace, you can separately manage users and resource groups (Apps, APIs, Rules, Data Models, etc.) so that users can develop, deploy, and manage applications seamlessly. Apart from default workspace, an account owner can create and manage multiple workspaces. In each workspace, the user can develop and manage applications separately. |
Workspace | When you access this sub-module, it displays all workspaces that you created or joined earlier. If you create a workspace, you act as the account owner of that workspace. If you join a workspace, you become a member of that workspace. When you access a workspace, you can view the following: a). Details of the currently accessed workspace b). Transfer Workspace link (If you are the owner of the currently accessed workspace) c). List of members of the currently accessed workspace d). List of applications created in the workspace |
