Managing logged in users

You can view the users who are currently logged in to the Helix ALM Server and information about each active session. You can also log out users to perform maintenance or other changes, and send messages to users.

You can also manage logged in users for a specific project in the Helix ALM desktop or web clients.

1. Click Logged In Users. You can also choose View > Logged In Users.

The Logged In Users dialog box opens.

2. To send a message to users, select users and click Send Message. If no users are selected, the message is sent to all users in the list. See Sending messages to logged in users.

For example, you may want to send a message to warn users to log out before you perform project maintenance so they can save their work. Messages are displayed in Helix ALM. You will not receive the message if you send it. Messages are not displayed in applications integrated with Helix ALM.

3. To log out users, select users and click Log Out User. See Logging out users.

4. Click Refresh to refresh the list.

5. Click Close when you finish.
