- When creating an account for the Fortinet support team, specify an email for the secondary account, and select Full Access or Limit Access.
A user with 'Full Access' has the same access level as a primary account user. A user with 'Limited Access' can only manage the assigned product serial number and will be unable to receive renewal notices or create additional secondary account users.
- Log in to the personal FortiCare portal. In the FortiSOAR Cloud section, you will see an account listed as a secondary member.
- Click the entry to expand the view.
A secondary account can access the portal thirty days after it expires. |
To modify a secondary account:
The new user must log in to FortiSOAR Cloud for the account to be displayed in the FortiSOAR instance. When a new user logs in to their account, they are automatically assigned Admin roles on FortiSOAR, if they are added as 'Full Access' user in FortiCare and are assigned the SOC Analyst role on FortiSOAR, if they are added as 'Limit Access' user in FortiCare. After the user has logged in to the account, the primary user or a super user can modify the account. |
- Log in to FortiCare.
- Click System Settings > Administrators.
- Edit the 'administrator', and assign a different profile.
