Adding new Users

Adding New Users

This is for Cru staff, student leaders, church partners and other CoLaborers. Remember, these users will have access to sensitive data. 

The first step is to ensure that the person you are wanting to give access to has a contact record in Connections[Beta]. If you can’t find them, you will need to add them as a contact before following the instructions in the video below. The video below shows you how to “promote” a contact to a user.

NOTE: If you are giving access to a staff person, make sure to use their work email address (the one they use to access Okta). Also, this video is a little outdated. We will record a new one, but until then, know that this process will work for staff users as well. The video says it’s only for volunteers.

Promoting Students to Staff/Intern

Because staff and interns have a different license than volunteers in Connections[Beta], you need to email help@cru.org when you have a new intern or staff person who was already a student leader in Connections[Beta]. The Help Desk will be able to switch their license and make sure they’re still able to login.
