Creating identities

2025-06-11Last updated

From time to time, you might need to create an identity manually in Genetec ClearID™. For example, for an identity that isn’t part of the usual mass import process or synchronization of identities using LDAP, One Identity, or API solutions.

What you should know

Only an account administrator can create identities.

Account administrators can create an identity manually in the web portal when the identity isn’t part of a mass import or synchronization of identities using LDAP, One Identity, or API solutions. For example, a contractor, system integrator, or other identities might be added manually.

Procedure

  1. Click Organization > Identities .
  2. Click Add an identity.
  3. Complete the mandatory fields:
    1. Enter a First name.
    2. Enter a Last name.
    3. Select a country from the list.
      Tip:
      Enter the first letter of the country to jump to that part of the country list.
  4. (Optional) Complete any additional fields that you require. For example:
    1. Enter a Business email address.
    2. Enter a Company name.
    3. Enter a Department.
    4. Enter a Supervisor name.
    5. Enter a Job title.
    6. Complete other fields as required.
  5. Click Save to create the identity in Genetec ClearID™.
