Types of Session Recording cloud administrators
For the Session Recording service specifically, there are three types of cloud administrators, which are achieved by assigning different roles:
| Type of Session Recording cloud administrator | Description |
|---|---|
| Full admin | Refers to a Citrix Cloud administrator assigned Full access, the Cloud Administrator role, or the Session Recording-FullAdmin role. |
| Privileged player admin | Refers to a Citrix Cloud administrator assigned only the Session Recording-PrivilegedPlayerAdmin role, or assigned the Session Recording-PrivilegedPlayerAdmin and the Session Recording-ReadOnlyAdmin roles. |
| Read-only admin | Refers to a Citrix Cloud administrator assigned only the Session Recording-ReadOnlyAdmin role. |
Note:
The administrators that you add through Azure AD groups don’t have any permissions initially. To assign them permissions, specify custom access that aligns with the administrators’ roles in your organization.
Add administrators from Azure AD
Administrative access to the Session Recording service is enabled for Azure Active Directory (AD) users and groups.
A general workflow to use the feature is as follows:
- Connect your Citrix Cloud account to your Azure AD. For more information, see Connect Citrix Cloud to Azure AD.
-
Add administrators to Citrix Cloud from Azure AD.
Citrix Cloud supports adding administrators either individually or as Azure AD groups.
- To add individual administrators from Azure AD, see Add new administrators. When you add an administrator, Citrix sends them an invitation email. Before the administrator can sign in, they must accept the invitation.
- To add Azure AD administrator groups to Citrix Cloud, see Add an administrator group to Citrix Cloud. Administrators that you add through Azure AD groups don’t receive invitations and can sign in to Citrix Cloud immediately after you add them.
-
Specify permissions for the administrators that you add.
