Why Use User Management?
You need to control who can connect to your broker—add users, set passwords, and manage access. The User Management in the Coreflux HUB lets you create, edit, and delete users without editing configuration files or using command-line tools.When to Use It
- Adding users — Create new users for devices, applications, or operators
- Updating credentials — Change passwords
- Managing permissions — Control which features each user can access
- Removing access — Delete users who no longer need broker access
