Add Labels to Users

Adding Labels to users (and doors)

Users are added with their phone number and full name. For smaller projects, that can be enough to know who's who. However, for bigger projects, we recommend adding labels to users. This gives you a better categorisation and overview of users, and allows for seamless sorting, filtering and editing when needed.

Unloc provides default labels that can be added to users(Company, Department, Role and Team). If you want to add your own, this can be added on the organizational level. Contact your system owner to add labels that fits with your own categorisation of users

First, add the labels you want to use on your project:

From the Project front page, go to settings on the left side menu
Click "labels", and add the ones you want to use
As you can see, labels can also be added to doors, separating for instance different buildings, areas, etc.

Then, start adding labels to actual users. There are two ways of doing it:

Add manually for each user: **Go into the user you want to add a label to. After adding labels, you will see them as options underneath the name of the user when you have clicked into them. You can either add a **new label, or select from existing
**Mass update using "User Label Editor": **Go into users from the main meny. Click the three dots next to "import users", and the "user label editor will appear. Here, you can type in labels, and select all users who should get that. Click "apply all" when done, and make sure to click "Save Changes" before leaving the view.
When labels are added the also become a part of the flow when adding new users

When labels are added, you can easily filter on specific labels when searching for a user, adding users to access groups, etc.

Adding labels to doors follows the exact same flow.
