Restrict Access To
If a Group or Business Entity is selected, the user will only be able to access the given group/business entity, and its subgroups. He will not be able to see or access any computers which do not belong to the given group or business entity.
This field is useful when you want to isolate a user to only view a certain group and its subgroups, for example one department in your company, or one customer if you are an MSP (Managed Service Provider). This field works in conjunction with the "Account Type" field shown above, in that you can have an Administrator who can only access a certain group, or a Report Reader that can only access another business entity.

To change the account's password, enter it in the "New Password" and "Repeat New Password" fields, and click "Save Changes".
API Credentials
To add or regenerate the REST API credentials for the account, click "Generate".
To remove REST API credentials for the account, click "Remove".
Note that the password portion of the API credentials will only be shown immediately after clicking the "Generate" button, so you must copy it immediately after generating new credentials.
