# Managing non-admin users
After creating a project or site, you need to add users to them. As an admin user, you can add users to three different roles: `Admin`, `Technician`, or `Viewer`.
A user's role determines what they can do with Amazon Monitron. The extent of their role permissions is determined by whether they are added at the project level or at the site level. Setting a user's role set at the project level gives the user permissions across all sites in that project. Setting a user's role at the site level gives the use permissions only to that site.

# Displaying a list of users
As an admin, you can use the list of users to manage users in the Amazon Monitron app. There are three levels you can choose from (depending on your admin role) to view a list of users:
+ As project level admin, you can view all users at the project level.
+ As project level admin, you can view all users at a particular site level.
+ As site level admin, you can view all users at a particular site level.

# Adding a user
When you add a new user, the role you choose determines the permissions that user has.
Users can have the following roles:
+ **Admin**. An admin user has full access to all resources within the project or site to which they've been added. They can add other users, create assets, pair sensors to assets, and so on. They can also monitor assets and acknowledge and resolve abnormalities. If they are added at the project level, these permissions extend through the entire project. If they are added at the site level, these permissions are limited to only that site.
+ **Technician**. A technician user has read-only permissions to the project or site to which they've been added and permissions for monitoring assets and acknowledging and resolving abnormalities. If they are added at the project level, these permissions extend through the entire project. If they are added at the site level, these permissions are for only that site.
+ **Read only**. A user with read-only permissions has permission to read (but not add, change, or delete) details of all resources within the project or site to which they've been added.
You use the same procedure to add a new user to a project or to a site.

# Changing a user role
You can change a user's role, but not a user's name. That's because the name is linked to the user directory that is linked to by Amazon Monitron.
To change a project or site's users, you must remove the previous users and add the new ones. For information on removing users from a project or site, see [To remove a user using the mobile app](deleting-user.md). For information on adding new users, see [Adding a user](adding-user.md).
