Welcome!

SensorUp makes it simple and secure to add new users to your workspace. Whether you’re managing field technicians, analysts, or admins, this guide will walk you through inviting a new user—and show them how to accept the invite and log in for the first time.
Time Required: 5 minutes
What You’ll Learn:
  • How to send a new user invitation
  • How to accept and activate your SensorUp account
  • How to enable secure 2-step verification
Common Pitfalls:
  • Skipping the phone number field (use 999-999-9999 if needed)
  • Entering the wrong email—invites only work for the entered email address

​
Role-Based Access Control

When creating a new user, you’ll assign them one of the following roles:
  • Viewer: Can view all data but cannot take any actions
  • Editor: Can view all data and take limited actions (create/update emissions, issues, manage own assets and maps)
  • Administrator: Can manage content across most sections (full CRUD on assets, forms, maps, and user management within their group)
  • Super Admin: Full access across all features (internal SensorUp staff only)

What’s a Security App?

A Security App (also called an Authenticator) generates time-based one-time passwords that refresh every 30 seconds.
Even if someone gets your code, it won’t work after 30 seconds. Recommended apps:
  • Google Authenticator
  • Authy
  • Duo Mobile
  • LastPass Authenticator
  • Microsoft Authenticator
Every time you sign in, you’ll be asked to enter the current code shown in your app to complete login securely.
