Creating a user
This will show you how to create a new user using the UserService in Umbraco.
If you want to create a new user, you'd use ASP.NET identity APIs like it is used in core.
Permissions aren't administered for the specific user, but rather for the user group(s) that the user is a part of. So to add our new user to a user group, we first need to get a reference to the user via the
GetUserGroupByAlias
method, and then use the AddGroup
method for adding the group to our user:// Get a reference to the default "Administrators" user group
UserGroup adminUserGroup = (UserGroup) us.GetUserGroupByAlias("admin");
// Add the user to the user group
user.AddGroup(adminUserGroup);
To make sure that these changed are saved to the database, we must also make sure to call the
Save
method. The GetUserGroupByAlias
method takes the alias of a user group - eg. admin
for the default Administrators user group.Last modified 13d ago
