Add a User (Master Data Services)

Applies to: SQL Server on Windows Azure SQL Managed Instance

Important

Master Data Services (MDS) is removed in SQL Server 2025 (17.x). We continue to support MDS in SQL Server 2022 (16.x) and earlier versions.

Add a user to the Users list in Master Data Manager to begin the process of assigning permission to the Web application. Before a user in the list can access Master Data Manager, you must give the user permission to one or more functional areas and model objects.

Prerequisites

To perform this procedure:

• You must have permission to access the Users and Group Permissions functional area.

To add a user

1. In Master Data Manager, click User and Group Permissions.

2. On the Users page, click Add users.

3. Type the user's name preceded by the Active Directory domain name or by the server computer's name, as in domain\user_name or computer\user_name.

4. Optionally, click Check names.

5. Click OK.
