Using Teams Management
There are three tabs on the Teams Management page to manage users, teams and license settings:
User Management
On this page, you can manage the HackerRank users in your organization at an individual level. Some of the actions that you can perform on the User tab include:
Search and Filter
The Search function lets you find any user by name, email, or team. Apply filters like License, Status, and Last Active to quickly locate specific users from a large user base. The filters enable precise searching and identification of users. Use Search with filters to find the right users among many easily.
Tip: Use the Last Active filter to find inactive users within a time range. Assess their license status as needed. The filter identifies dormant users over specified periods.
Add Users
You can add new team members by clicking the Add New User button. Here you can add a user in 3 ways:
-
Email Invite: To add a new user, enter their name and email address. Select the license to assign and the team to add them to. Then click Add. The user will receive an email invite to join the selected team.
-
Link Invite: Here, select the license and team. The platform generates a link to share with any number of users. They can use the link to join the selected team.
-
Bulk Invite: Here, you can upload a CSV file consisting of all the user data, such as their names and emails. The platform uses information in the file to add respective users. They will receive an email to join the team. You can also download a sample CSV file to understand the format.
Transfer Ownership
You can transfer ownership of tests, courses, and other resources from one user to another before removing their access.
Locking Users
