Administrative Portal Transcript . . .

Welcome to the GridMarkets Administrator Portal User Guide. The GridMarkets Administrator Portal is a platform designed to allow administrators to manage users and view their job submissions within the GridMarkets system. It provides a convenient and centralized location for administrators to perform tasks such as adding and maintaining users, purchasing credits, and monitoring the status of job submissions. In this guide, we will cover how to use the portal to effectively manage your users and view their job submissions. First, let's start by logging into the portal at https : / / portal dot gridmarkets dot com using the same email and password you use for Envoy. Once you're logged in, you'll be taken to the Admin View. Here, you'll be able to see all of your users' jobs, as well as your organization's credits that haven't been assigned to any user. You can use the Job Status Filter to filter the list by status, and you can use the "Buy Credits" button to purchase more credits. To view the frames and logs of a user's job submission, or to stop a job, simply select the magnifying glass button. Next, let's take a look at the Manage Users screen. Here, you'll find several options for finding and managing users. You can use the user search filter options to list users, and you can use the New User button to create a new user. You can also use the payment history button to display your organization's credit purchases, and the Buy Credits button to purchase more credits. To find a specific user, simply enter any combination of the search options and hit Apply Search. This will display information about the user, including their Access Key, Service Plan, Credits Used and Available, and Status. You can use the dollar button to view the credits allocated and purchased by the user, and the plus button to add or remove credits from their account. You can also use the status button to deactivate or reactivate their account, and the edit button to change their name, email, or password. Finally, you can use the job icon button to view the user's job submissions. To add a new user, simply select the New User button and fill in the user's name, email, password, initial credits, and any notes. Once you're finished, hit add to create the new user. Thank you for your interest in the GridMarkets Administrator Portal. We hope this guide has been helpful. If you have any questions, contact us at support at gridmarkets dot com.
