This layer of security allows a district or coop administrator to assign specific roles to I-Star users.

Once all of your I-Star users have established IWAS accounts and logged into I-Star at least once, the district or cooperative administrator can assign security roles to all the users on their behalf.

To assign specific roles to I-Star users follow the steps below:

Step 1:  To assign security roles from the Admin drop-down menu, click User List.

NOTE: To request a security role, see I-Star User Roles.

Step 2: Click the Manage Security tab.

NOTE: The User List will have two tabs:

  1. Manage Security
    1. This tab will show all users assigned to your district(s).
  2. Security Request
    1. This tab shows any users who have requested a user role. See Approve/Deny a Security Request.
    2. If a district or coop administrator has not assigned a security role to a user, see I-Star User Roles/Requests.

Step 7: District superintendents and/or cooperative directors are the only IWAS users that can manage security in the IWAS system. Since this may be a time-consuming task, they may delegate this responsibility to another user or users in their district or cooperative for I-Star. Select the button under the current access column under the District Security Administrator box.
